God strengthened me after many difficult disappointments by opening new opportunities when other opportunities closed. Today I struggle with a torn ligaments and a damaged knee cap. I am frustrated because I can not do things I would normally do daily. However, I know God will cure me in due time.
We will face trials and disappointment, but God will always be close to bringing comfort and strength to help us rise above the problems and disappointments.
Therefore, if you recently experienced a devastating disappointment or failure and feel like you’ll never recover, Scripture encourages us not to rely on our strength but put our confidence in God and His promises.
Reflect
How has God strengthened you after a difficult disappointment? How does that give you encouragement for the struggles you face today?
My prayer for us:
Heavenly Father, thank You that in every trial and disappointment, You’re always close, offering comfort and strength to help us rise again.
