reserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and your right hand delivers me. The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands."
Psalm 138:7-8

Though trouble surrounds us, God is never absent. The psalmist declares that even in distress, the Lord preserves his life. This is a powerful reminder that our circumstances do not dictate God’s presence—He is with us in the valleys just as much as on the mountaintops.

Verse 8 reassures us that God will fulfill His purpose for our lives. We may not always see the full picture, but we can trust that His plan is unfolding, even in the moments that feel uncertain. This echoes Romans 8:28, where Paul reminds us that God works all things together for good for those who love Him.

So today, if you feel overwhelmed, remember: God is working in your life. He is shaping, refining, and leading you toward His perfect plan. You are not forgotten. You are held.

Have a great day, and as always, let others see Jesus in you!
