  What is the most difficult part of being a Christian? Jesus put it very clearly. If you want to follow me...

  Some of the most encouraging portions of Scripture come during the most difficult circumstances. That's when God grows us most. Consider Jeremiah's great confession of faith in the middle of his most difficult circumstances in Lamentations 3.

  Have you seen an angel? Well, let us know if you think you have... but the Bible states that there are time when we probably have. And yet there's something even more important to remember.

The greatest display of God's power on earth is not the astounding forces of nature that are uncontrolled by man... They are His Words. Listen to Psalm 29. 3The voice of the LORD echoes above the sea. The God of glory thunders. The LORD thunders over the mighty sea. 4The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is majestic. 5The voice of the LORD splits the mighty cedars; the LORD shatters the cedars of Lebanon. 6He makes Lebanon’s mountains skip like a calf; he makes Mount Hermon leap like a young wild ox. 7The voice of the LORD strikes with bolts of lightning. 8The voice of the LORD makes the barren wilderness quake; the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh. 9The voice of the LORD twists mighty oaks and strips the forests bare. In his Temple everyone shouts, “Glory!” Psalm 29:3–9 (NLT)

The picture of God as Shepherd is a common comforting one. Psalm 23 states He leads and guides us. But Psalm 29 asks something further. He prays that God would carry His people forever. Perhaps that's how you feel tonight. Lord, please carry us through!
