Monday, March 18, 2019If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not withhold his own Son, but gave him up for all of us, will he not with him also give us everything else? Romans 8:31–32 It’s not that hard to admit that we need God’s help in this life. Only the most proud or the most foolish believe they are truly self-sufficient. Yes, we need God. Yes, we can seek from God whatever we need—help, comfort, or guidance. But actually taking the step toward God can be not only difficult but complex. A lot of things can get in the way, such as pain, shame, anger, or fear. How do we come to God when pain, shame, anger, or fear is blocking the path? Remember one simple fact: God is for us, not against us. God waits for us, eager to help with our pain, shame, anger, or fear. The only thing to do is step forward and bring to God whatever burden hinders us. Yours in Prayer, David Caraway
