Even the darkest night will lead to dawn.

“What’s going to happen?”

“How will this work out?”

“Do I have the strength to get through this?”

We’ve all had nights full of questions. We stare at the clock as the minutes pass. What does “in peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, O Lord, will keep me safe” (Psalm 4:8) mean in times like those?

Those words are an invitation to release control. Realize we can’t keep ourselves safe. We can’t fix this problem. We can’t be strong enough on our own. Whew.

It’s okay to have doubts and fears. Tell God you’re afraid and weary. Tell Him what you need. It’s often in the moments when we feel weakest and most vulnerable that God exerts His strength on our behalf. 

You are in God’s care, and your tomorrow is in His hands. He is the One who loves you, who will never let you go, who can keep you through the darkest night until the dawn.

XOXO,
Holley Gerth
