ASLC Devotions - Wednesday

Psalm 73:26 My flesh and my heart may fail,
   but God is the strength
of my heart and my portion for ever.

Are you having a bad week? Things dragging you down? Are the bills piling higher than you thought they might? Had you hoped for a little relief, for a little bit easier time this week than last and it's just not there.

I don't have and won't attempt to give any easy answers to life's very complicated troubles. I know that pain and stress and heartache are just too real for that.

All I know is this: there is a God who is strong and powerful. The God of all the universe has claimed you and washed you and promised to be with you forever. Try something: memorize this verse and repeat it to yourself when it feels like the end of the line:

My flesh and my heart may fail,
   but God is the strength
of my heart and my portion for ever.

In Christ,
Pastor Seth
