The attitude you and I can have in the face of our problems is one of peace and trust. Rather than looking at our past failures, our present difficulties, or our future fears, we can look to the Lord, thankful for His wisdom, strength, and power.
We can remind ourselves that no matter how many problems may be facing us, the one who is with us is greater than all those opposing us.
If we depend totally on ourselves or on other people, we set ourselves up for failure and disappointment.
The best thing we can do in any situation is lean on God. People may fail and disappoint us, but we can thank God that He will never fail or forsake us.
Prayer of thanks.
I am grateful, Lord, that you will never fail me or forsake me. Thank you for the relationships in my life, but help me to remember to come to you for help before I go to any person.
You are my number one source of help and strength.
