Psalm 112
I don't know anyone that welcomes bad news but for those that trust in the Lord, bad news does not cause the anguish and pain that might otherwise occur for non-believers. It starts with God created all things, is in all things, and He holds all things together - see here. God knows You. He has a plan for You. We are to look for how discipline and suffering may be training and be thankful.
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You ARE an awesome God - full of love and compassion for me and all of Your children, even though I and all of us are broken and fallen. Thank You Jesus - for dying on the cross for me even though You were not deserving! I am not worth Your love and compassion. I am selfish, lazy, etc. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome my sin. Help me turn from my sin towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Help me love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Give me strength. Give Lisa strength. Please heal Lisa of her cancer and the side effects from chemo. Help me lead and serve Lisa, Zach and Dustin...and serve You. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord. v7
