The scripture for today, March 25, is Lamentations 3:25 as found in the Old Testament of the Bible:
“The Lord is good to
those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him.”
Notice, this does not say the Lord is good to those who have faith in him. All they have to do is hope he exists and hope he loves them.
Some people have been raised by atheists, or have attended a university where professors criticize theists (believers in God). Or perhaps they have had a major tragedy in their life and can’t understand how a good God could allow that bad thing to happen. Or maybe they live among people who believe all the gods in the world are the One God, so don’t pay special attention to any of them.
Life can be confusing, so confusing that we have trouble having faith in God. But we can still hope! Keep hope alive. Let the Lord be good to you.
