Can We Rejoice?
LISTEN TO ODB RADIO: Real | MP3 | WMA
|
READ:
Habakkuk 3:17-19Yet I will rejoice in the Lord . . . . The Lord God is my strength. Habakkuk 3:18-19
Ill never forget the question our Bible-study leader asked: What do you fear would test your faith in God the most? We were studying Habakkuk 3:17-18, where the prophet said that even if God sent suffering or loss, he would still rejoice.
As a single woman in my twenties, my answer was I dont know if I could stand the pain of losing my parents. But I told God that day that even when they died I would rejoice in Him. I found out too soon that its easier said than done.
A month later, Dad learned he had heart disease and didnt have long to live. He didnt know Jesus as his Savior, so I begged God not to let him die without coming to know Him. Not only did he die that year, so did Mom, who was a believer. I didnt know if my prayer for Dad was answered. I couldnt rejoice; I wondered if God had even heard my prayer.
As I wrestled with Him about my questions, I experienced the Lord as my refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). I found hope in the truth that God, the Judge of all the earth, would do what was right by everyone (Genesis 18:25).
We can rejoicewhen we are rejoicing in the Lord, our strong refuge and righteous Judge. Anne Cetas-->
Why must I bear this pain? I cannot tell;
I only know my Lord does all things well.
And so I trust in God, my all in all,
For He will bring me through, whateer befall. Smith

What is David's Whizzy Periodic Table? I don't know what they are. I clicked on the link and I wanted to see what was going to happen. Well, what happened is that that window totally froze and I can't stop it without killing all of my IE windows at the same time. Oh, well.
