When trouble finds you

Sometimes we must endure the consequences of our sin. Sometimes the Lord disciplines us. Sometimes trouble finds us even though we have done everything in our power to avoid it. In these cases we must place our total confidence in the Lord and wait for him to save us (Mic 7:7). Even when we suffer as a result of our own sin, He will not stay angry forever. He delights in showing unfailing love (Mic 7:18). His anger is but for a moment. His favor is for a life time. Weeping may last the night, but a shout of joy comes in the morning (Psa 30:5).
