Psalm 145
"The Lord upholds all who are falling, and raises up all who are bowed down."
It is no secret, life can get messy sometimes. We all have moments when we feel like we are falling with no safety net in sight. We all experience those times when we feel continually bowed down in defeat. It is easy to question God's presence in these moments. How could a God of abundant love, grace, and peace allow for such hardship and heartache? This is a question we all wrestle with and one that is not easily answered. Though amid the struggles to find God perhaps the best place to look is in our very struggles. As we are falling, God is there holding us up. As we are bowing down, God is there raising our heads.
Are you currently feeling as though you are falling? Are you feeling bowed down in defeat? Where might God be present? How might you find God's presence?
We are falling and we are bowed down. We are searching for your presence, God. We will be patient in our pursuit of you during our struggles knowing that you are our safety net to catch us and our back brace to erect us. Amen.
