light and dark

revelation from devotion.

'I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. in this world you will have trouble. but take heart, I have overcome the world.' John 16:33

blessings cannot be appreciated if there is no trouble.
can't appreciate light without being in the dark.
when everything that can go wrong, does, God is there
will he reach down and pick us up out of the muck and mire?
not always,
but he did promise to be in the muck and mire with us
and guide us through until we have a solid footing.

life is bad.
God is there.
Life is good.
God is there.

i'm out of the muck.
