Devotional | Finding Strength in Difficult Times

Scripture: 

Psalm 28:7 "The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him."

Life can be challenging, and difficult times can leave us feeling overwhelmed and weary. As Christian women, we can find comfort and strength in God’s promises, knowing that He is always with us, even in our darkest moments.

Reflection: When we face trials, it’s easy to focus on our problems and feel discouraged. However, God invites us to shift our gaze from our circumstances to His unwavering love and faithfulness. He is our strength and shield, providing us with the courage and resilience we need to persevere. Trusting in Him allows us to find peace and hope, even when the path ahead seems uncertain.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for being my strength and shield. In times of trouble, help me to trust in Your unfailing love and to lean on Your promises. Give me the courage to face each day with hope and faith, knowing that You are with me. Fill my heart with Your peace and joy, and help me to be a light to others, even in difficult times. In Christ's name, Amen.

Action Step: Take a moment to write down a few of God’s promises that bring you comfort. Reflect on these promises and meditate on how they apply to your current situation. Let God’s Word be a source of strength and encouragement for you. Share these promises with a friend who might also be going through a tough time, and pray together for God’s guidance and support.
