God never promised any of us a rose garden.
Even in the center of God’s will for your life, it won’t all be easy!
Going through valleys is normal and inevitable. You are either in one now, just got out of one, or are going back into another one. God is more than the God of the mountain tops; He’s the God of the valleys too!
Think about Joseph and Job in the Bible. These were two men that were righteous and who sought to honor God with their lives! They didn’t do anything wrong, yet they both had to endure hard days and much suffering. It seemed like their journeys took them through valleys more often than not, but in the end, they came out on the other side!
The same can be true for you. Just because you are going through a hard time doesn’t mean you did something wrong.
Hard days happen to everyone.
The Bible says that the rain falls on the just and unjust alike!
I want to remind you today that no matter what you are going through, God is with you. He is faithful, and He will lead you through every valley!
Deuteronomy 11:11
“The Promised Land you are about to enter is a land of hills and valleys.”
Be encouraged today because God is with you.
