Finding a few moments of quiet time for myself, I took a short walk to get away from the house and phone calls. Over a couple of weeks I had faced some trying times and just needed to be alone with God and slow down a bit. I had begun to develop a ‘Woe is Me’ attitude, and Satan was doing his best to keep me there. I should have never allowed myself to get to that point, but I did and there was no one to blame but me.

I felt some better after reading a few verses in Micah 7: 1 realizing that I wasn’t alone and this was nothing new. Many before me have been going through the same thing. I’ve heard ‘Misery Loves Company,’ I wouldn’t wish that on anyone! But it is encouraging to know, there have been others who have actually walked in your shoes and come out the victor.

Micah 7: 7 “Therefore I will look unto the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me.” 11 Samuel 22:7 “In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried to my God and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.” KJV

Isn’t it comforting to know that God hears, cares, loves and delivers us out of all our trials? We can be victorious.

We don’t have to get to the point of woe, but if we do, God does hear and he answers.
