Thursday Writing...1/16/20..."God's Wrath and Love"

Good Morning,

The devotional for today studies the fact that God can feel wrath but He also feels great love and has promised to never leave or forsake us. Here is a quote from this writing, "When you wake up feeling alone and disconnected because of the challenges in your life, when you are in the dark valley under the shadows of your situations and it becomes hard to see, that is when you need to rest on the wing of His promises."

His promises are always loving and upon which we can depend.

May many blessings be yours in this new year of 2020.

Brother Thomas & Jody Ward.

Today's Devotional 
"God's Wrath and Love" 

Written by
Brother Thomas Ukwute 

          and Jody Ward

For one brief moment I abandoned you. In a quick burst of anger, I rejected you and hid My face from you, leaving you to feel deserted and alone.

But I love you with a love that endures the ages and loves you forever. With enormous compassion I will gather you back to me. With great mercy, I will forgive and protect. With kindness, I will bring you to Me. With tenderness, I will embrace you again.

That is what I say. And I am the Lord, your Redeemer.

Isaiah 54:7-8

When you wake up feeling alone and disconnected because of the challenges in your life, when you are in the dark valley under the shadows of your situations and it becomes hard to see, that is when you need to rest on the wing of His promises.

He, Himself said... 

"I will never leave you 

nor forsake you." 
Heb 13.5

and  

 “For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; 
Weeping may endure for a night, 

But joy comes in the morning.” 

Psalm 30.5

May the Grace of our Lord strengthen and uphold you through this moment of uncertainty. May you receive the strength to stay on course, no matter the pain or pressure, until the light breaks through, in Jesus name, amen.
