Someone is Tender With You

When you feel weak, sad or lonely Someone has tenderhearted compassion and mercy for you.

This is not an ordinary someone but Someone who sits in high places and happens to be the Highest Ruler of the Universe.

Usually we think of a higher authority as someone we’d be intimidated by but not this Ruler.

When you feel weak and in need of strength, you can come to the Ruler of All and you can count on His tenderhearted compassion and mercy for you.

Others may let you down and disappoint you. He won’t. He will always be there for you. He is reliable.

Ageless Beauty

“What is your name?” She smiled at me as I sat down my plate at the table to eat my lunch. I glanced over to the booth next to me and saw an elderly woman smiling at me.

“My name is Sharon,” I walked over to her booth thinking she must know me.

“My name is Marilyn,” she smiled at me. I realized when I arrived over there that I didn’t know her but to be gracious I went along with her.

“Good to see you!”

“I used to own a dress shop downtown so that must be where I know you from.”

Someone Cares When You’re Distressed

Do you have the freedom to accept yourself and express your feelings of stress or distress?

In some cultures, it’s not considered acceptable to express feelings of deep distress or grief. The result is that we often suppress these feelings or think there is something wrong with us.

However, David the Psalmist frequently referred to his distress or grief and anguish. By doing so, he frees us to be human. When things are not going well in the family, at work, or some other distressing life situation, David gives us permission to express those feelings, if not publicly, at least before the Lord.
