In the darkest days

Earlier today on Bellshill Salvation Army Band’s Facebook page I shared some devotions. I’d like to share those devotions with you tonight.

Life can be challenging at times. In those times we can sometimes get to a point where we can’t pray, we may question our faith, and even the existence of God. It may feel as if our friends have deserted us, and it may even feel as if God is a million miles away. Times like that can put us in a place where we feel as if we’re in a very dark place in our lives.

During those dark times we must try to keep our faith in God, because no matter our situation, God is with us, and will never desert us. He will walk with you throughout those difficult times.

When words don't come to your lips
When prayer seems a distant memory
When life seems too difficult
God is with you

When darkness surrounds you
When friends are nowhere to be found
When the phone remains silent
God is still with you

Personally, I’ve have always turned to specific songs or music for comfort and reassurance during difficult times. There’s one song I have turned to many times when I’m finding life challenging or difficult – Here’s some of the words.

Be still and know that he is God
Even on a dark night like tonight
Do you think he forgot
And do you think he doesn’t care
Well he does
And he’s more than just enough
 
I know you’re going through this alone
You Knock so hard on that door
but still there’s no one home
But he will answer you
And answer you with love
And that’s why
He’s more than just enough
 
You are more than just enough
You are more than just enough
Even when times get rough
You’re more than just enough
 
Hard tears and a heavy heart
Everything is slipping away
You’re falling apart
But he gazes down at you
Beaming with love
Saying “child, You’re more than just enough”
 
You are more than just enough
You are more than just enough
Even when times get tough
You’re more than just enough
 
There are times I feel the life
Slipping through my hands
And my thoughts provoke my tears
As I try to understand
That your hands sustain me
You love remains the only thing worth living for
That’s why you’re more
 
You’re more than just enough
You are more than just enough
You are more than just enough
Even when times get rough
You’re more than just
You are more than just
You are more than just enough
You are more than just enough
Please be more than just enough

Whenever you are struggling and need reminded that God is still with you, I pray you may remember that God is more than just enough for you in every situation.
