The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him (Lamentations 3:25).
God is with us even in the darkest of life’s
moments. We can find hope in God’s
presence in spite of life’s pain. How do we
contact God’s help and hope during life’s
storms? This verse offers two survival tactics:
1. Wait on God. The word “wait” means to
look, to expect, to bind together. When we
wait on the Lord during our troubles rather
than worrying (which really represents a lack
of faith, Matthew 6:25-34), we will be brought
closer to God, and our faith in Him will grow.
2. Seek God. Jesus reminds us that all who
seek will find (Matthew 7:7-8). Paul preached
that we should “seek the Lord … though he be
not far from every one of us” (Acts 17:27).
