I need comfort today. I have had a sadness about myself lately. Maybe it is the world that tries to suffocate us. Maybe work is consuming us. Maybe so. When we seek comfort from God and we are desiring to draw near and we hope to find an encouraging word, just maybe we hear a word that is a gift if understood. Sometimes we need to STOP and take a look within, take an internal audit. Yes, the Lord God speaks to us in many ways. Dear Lord God, I give thanks unto You for all of the ways You choose to speak to me. Your ways are always the best.
But where are thy gods that thou hast made thee? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble: for according to the number of thy cities are thy gods, O Judah.
Jer 2:28 KJV
Wherefore will ye plead with me? ye all have transgressed against me, saith the LORD.
Jer 2:29 KJV
In vain have I smitten your children; they received no correction: your own sword hath devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.
Jer 2:30 KJV
O generation, see ye the word of the LORD. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of darkness? wherefore say my people, We are lords; we will come no more unto thee?
Jer 2:31 KJV
Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.
Jer 2:32 KJV
Why trimmest thou thy way to seek love? therefore hast thou also taught the wicked ones thy ways.
Jer 2:33 KJV
Also in thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents: I have not found it by secret search, but upon all these.
Jer 2:34 KJV
I agree, Needed this thank you for sharing! God Bless 🙂

I prayed for you this morning. I’ve actually felt a sadness myself the past couple of days. Thank you for encouraging me to stop and listen to the One who loves me and gave Himself for me. You’re right, dear one. His ways are always the best!
