Who stood up for me against the wicked? Who took my side against the evil workers? If god hadn't been there for me I never would have made it. The minute I said, "I'm falling, I'm slipping", your love, God, took hold and held me fast. When I was upset and beside myself, you calmed me down and cheered me up.
Psalm 94:16-19 MSG
There have been some situations in my life, and the lives of my friends, where without the help of God we would have fallen miserably. Tough circumstances, that leave many men and women paralyzed, have ripped through the lives of a few beautiful women I know and I get a smile on my face every time I think of the power God has over their lives. A power that allows them to stand tall while everything around them is crumbling fast. So often we get caught up in the bad stuff and difficulties that we struggle seeing where God has turned bad to good. God promises to stand with us during everything we face. He makes it possible to make it out alive! What have you made it through that without God would have been impossible? Do you have a friend that is living proof of a faithful God?
Celebrate God today thanking Him for the many situations He has walked you, or a friend through. Praise Him for the many ways He has helped you grow, and for the friends in your life that can share in your joy. Stand tall and confident knowing that one cry will alarm God to reach out and catch you, and after you are safe in His arms, He can cheer you up, and make life livable again.
