In The Face Of The Giver
There are times when we're hurting...and people disappoint us because they don't have the right words to say. They can't even fathom the depth of our problem or what we struggle with day-after-day. But these times of disappointment only serve to remind us that people are simply just what they are. They are limited in wisdom because they are mortal and their knowledge is only so far. The reason for that is really so simple because it's only God who truly knows all. And God was meant to be our true source of comfort and the one who we desperately call. All those situations where others "don't get it" are our chances to spiritually grow, To seek out our solace and wisdom from the Father for all the details He already knows. And when we do that, we are not disillusioned by people and whatever they deliver. For we have been comforted by the gifts of His heart as we've looked in the face of the Giver.

I will lift up my eyes to the hills— From whence comes my help? My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth. Psalm 121:1-2 NKJV For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD. Psalm 27:5-6 NKJV
