Psalm 145:8-9 (NKJV) 8 The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, Slow to anger and great in mercy. 9 The Lord is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This verse came to me yesterday as I was crying out in prayer for someone dear to me. I felt very helpless at the time for this particular situation. Within my own understanding I just didn’t know how, nor could I even see a way out for them. I was terribly saddened and feeling a heaviness at that particular moment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

After praying, I opened my Bible and this is the first\u00a0verse I saw. It was my answer!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This verse right here spoke volumes to me.<\/p>\n

I had received a phone call on this day and I needed to go out and help someone with their situation. It was a bittersweet moment. I was happy to be able to be there to help, but the things I saw saddened my heart.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As I prayed for this person, their situation became real to me and I truly felt for them. I hurt for them. I wept for them and I tried to put myself in their place. I was asking myself what would I do and how would I handle it, if that was me.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

To be honest, it was a very hard situation, and from my own understanding I drew nothing but a blank.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

How\u00a0many\u00a0of us are drawing a blank\u00a0today? It’s OK to admit this. Because God will come and He will fill in those blanks with His word.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The scripture above says He is gracious. This showed me that no matter how far down we get, His hand can reach us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He’s slow to anger, and great in mercy. It’s not over for\u00a0us. Don’t even think we’re done.\u00a0He will help us fix this.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He is good to all. That means you, me and anyone going through trials and who calls on His name. His mercies are over all of His works!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Be encouraged today. God has our back! Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
