Finding Strength in the Shadows


In life, there are moments when we feel abandoned and alone. We may question our purpose during these challenging times and wonder if God has forgotten us. What do you do when it feels like you are alone and everything seems against you?

In these moments of trials, it's crucial to remember that even in the silence, God's promises echo throughout the scriptures. It's a test of faith, a time when we must encourage ourselves in the Lord, just as David did in the face of his trials.

There are instances when it feels like God is on vacation or we think that our names are no longer in the palm of His hands. Yet, during these perceived absences, we can find solace in our faith, being refined. The journey of faith is not always easy; sometimes, it's about navigating through the shadows with unwavering trust in God.

Reflecting on the crucifixion, we see even Jesus experienced the feeling of abandonment when He cried out on the cross. It may seem like you have lost everything in moments of despair, but it's good to give thanks and pray. It's a paradoxical act, acknowledging the pain while expressing gratitude because, deep down, we know that God's love remains steadfast.

When the storms of life threaten to overwhelm you, remember that God's love for you is unchanging. Take a moment to give thanks, even amid adversity, and embrace the power of prayer. In these moments, we discover a strength within ourselves that can only be possible through the refining fire of challenges.

Thank you for reading.
