When things are hard, it is hard to praise God. When things are not going in our favor, we start to wonder if God really cares. Friend, God does not find joy in our trials or our suffering. From the start, God always wanted goodness for our lives. Sin has caused hardship, not God. It is so important that we remember this. We need to praise Him, no matter the circumstance. Praising God in the hard can be difficult. However, in doing so we can better see the bigger picture of His blessings. Instead of being consumed by the sin of this world and the devils’ schemes. Though God does allow for things to happen, we must remember God allows things sometimes for reasons only He knows. That same God has given us many blessings. Friend, we must remember His goodness. For it helps us to remember all the times that He has been faithful in our lives. Why would He stop now? Friend, I pray in our heart, we can remember this. For a heart that praises God in all the seasons of life, finds peace even through the trials. Knowing God has been faithful and will continue to be.
