My favorite quote from Corrie Ten Boom is “There is no pit so deep, that God's love is not deeper still.”
So whatever you are going through remember that the coldest and darkest part of the night is right before dawn. When dawn breaks, light shines forth and the temperatures begin to climb. God gives a new beginning each and every day, a fresh start.
But in the hours before the dawn, the darkest hours, tragedy, heartbreak, disappointment, and grief can pull us down into the abyss. At times it seems almost impossible to come out of it.
These are the times that we must reach out to God and let him infuse His light in our lives. It's a choice for us to make.
We can stay in the pain and seclusion of our situation, or we can reach out and grab onto God's promises "Cast all your anxiety on Him because he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:7 NIV)
You may feel that you can't. Jesus said "Everything is possible for him who believes." (Mark 9:23 NIV).
No matter your situation today, take refuge in God's word "As for God, his way is perfect, the word of the Lord is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him." (Psalm 18:30 NIV) He will be there for you with love and mercy that only comes from Him!
