Daily Encouragement from Bude Church of God
Corrie Ten Boom once said, “Often I have heard people say, “How good God is! We prayed that it would not rain for our church picnic, and look at the lovely weather!” Yes, God is good when He sends good weather. But God was also good when He allowed my sister, Betsie, to starve to death before my eyes in a German concentration camp. I remember one occasion when I was very discouraged there. Everyth
ing around us was dark, and there was darkness in my heart. I remember telling Betsie that I thought God had forgotten us. “No, Corrie,” said Betsie, “He has not forgotten us. Remember His Word: “For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His steadfast love toward those who fear Him.” Corrie concludes, “There is an ocean of God’s love available – there is plenty for everyone. May God grant you never to doubt that victorious love – whatever the circumstances.”God’s Word is TRUTH…His Word promises that He will strengthen us, guide us, uphold us, never leave us nor forsake us, encourage us, comfort us, and best of all, His Word promises that He has gone to prepare a place for us so that one day we will be at home, our heavenly home, with Him forever!! Be encouraged that this TRUTH sets us free, regardless of whatever earthly, temporary circumstances we may face.
