I’ve been taking great comfort in a simple truth from scripture. In Psalm 138, David claims, “God will fulfill His purpose for me.”
It’s true. I don’t have to worry. As I think about all the times in the Bible that “purpose” occurs, I remember that nobody can thwart God’s purposes.
Nobody. And nothing.
The Lord’s purposes prevail.
They do.
In another translation, I read that “God will accomplish all that concerns me.”
When I think about all that comes against the child of God–rejection, discouragement, disappointment, suffering, death, depression, and every terrible thing–I remind myself that God fulfills His purposes for us.

Amen and amen! Love this as it serves as a great reminder to us all.
Knowing His purpose is especially comforting this weekend as I prepare my home and dogs for flooding…again.
Thank you.
