When in Doubt

Written by ronda on . Posted in Phoebe Connections.

Psalm 73:21-24

When I became embittered and my innermost being was wounded, I was a fool and didn’t understand; I was an unthinking animal toward You. Yet I am always with You; You hold my right hand. You guide me with Your counsel, and afterwards You will take me up in glory.

God does not leave us when we struggle with doubts. On the contrary, He stands with us to help us see His truth. A view of eternity will help us gain proper perspective when we see the wicked prosper. Those in Christ will be with Him forever, and any victory an unbeliever experiences is temporary. Some may enjoy great wealth and notoriety today, but nothing they have or do will last forever.

I love The Message Bible’s translation of verses 23-24. “I’m still in Your presence, but You’ve taken my hand. You wisely and tenderly lead me, and then You bless me.”

How wonderful it is to know that when we doubt, God remains with us and is still eager to bless us! When we can’t see His hand, we can surely trust His heart toward us. We were made to make His name great and not our own. Those who seek to make their own name great will perish. When we honor and exalt God, He honors us.

Have a blessed day!
