Even In Affliction, God Is Able To Make One Glad

 

Today's verse is Psalm 90:15

     Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us,

      And the years wherein we have seen evil.

    Here is a Mystery, God is able to take those things that we count worst, and cause them to be a reason to rejoice. Consider Jacob, that is now called Israel, one day he lost his son, Joseph, and had thought he had died. But because Joseph was as dead to him, Joseph was able to prepare a place for him, even a place of plenty when the famine was at its worst. And when the time was right, he was once again brought before his living son, who provided him and his family the provision needed for the time of famine. So also will our God do for us, if we wait on him, and Trust in him, and acknowledge him in all our ways. Amen.

To God be the Glory

Scott
