Are you going through a hard season in life? Do you find yourself questioning why you are in a hard situation? Life can be very hard most of the time but God is still with you. It is okay to cry out to God in all your sadness and pain. God will hear your cry and he cares for you.
The song “Flowers” by Samantha Ebert touches on this subject. I encourage you to listen to this song if you are facing a hard time right now. This song is a great reminder of the following things.
We can be completely honest with God when we pray, we can cry and he will completely understand. It is okay to ask God questions while you are in the middle of the hard times in your life. Now it is important to be humble before God and we should not confront God in a defiant way but it is okay to come with those honest questions.
We can trust that God is good and that he has a good and beautiful plan for us even when we are in the middle of the darkest moment. I love the image of God holding the watering can and how we represent the flowers that will bloom out of the ground. Yes things may start off dark but there is sunlight at the end.
It is also important to reflect back on what God has done in the past. When you find yourself on the other side or on top of the mountain you should remember where God picked you up from. This will help you trust God the next time you face hard times.
