Ever had one of those icky, no-good days? Weeks? Months? Years? When it seems like everyone else is getting what they need, want, etc, but you are left out of all of the good stuff? My grandson had one of those days tonight.
Brenden was not happy and for about one hour he cried out complaining of his situation, his feelings, his perception of the lack of care he was receiving. He’s just 5 ½ months old and it was nearing his bedtime, his fussy time. Nevertheless, every adult in the house was very aware of his needs. His daddy was holding him, rocking him, talking to him, explaining how much better he would feel once he gave in and went to sleep. Even though I’m sure it seemed to Brenden as though no one was listening. His earthly father and his heavenly Father were very aware of what was going on and they were and are both very ready and able to take care of his needs.
In a day and age where everyone said things like, “It doesn’t matter what I do or what other people do, the wicked are blessed and God doesn’t care.” There were a few who encouraged one another. “Then those who feared the Lord talked with each other and the Lord listened and heard. A scroll of rememberances was written in His presence concerning those who feared the Lord and honored His name.” Malachi 3:16. Truly we are blessed when we fear the Lord, because He remembers us. He literally ‘takes note’ of our attitudes and actions.
I hope that you will be blessed today to know that … “The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and His ears are attentive to their cry.” Psalm 34:15.
