Habakkuk 3: 17-19
Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vine; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty, yet I will be joyful in the God of my Salvation. The Sovereign Lord is my strength! He will make me as surefooted as a deer and bring me safely over the mountains.
All this world's goods are as nothing compared to what our God is preparing for us! And even when we have none of this world's provisions, still our Lord will not neglect to meet our every need.
Knowing this, trusting God as our Provider even when we don't see any provisions, will enable us to rejoice in the Lord and give us the strength to go on.
It has been said that, "When all you have is God, you find that God is all you need." May our Father teach us this truth, as we know Him better each day. And knowing Him better, we will love Him even more. And our faith will be strengthened and deepened to really believe He is Who He says He is, and that He does exactly what He did for others before us, and will also do for us, too.
He has always kept to the letter every promise He has ever made, and will never change; He will always be God over us all, and will never love us any less than He does right now.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
