God Lifts Us Up in Times of Trouble

Psalm 37:23-24 (NIV) If the LORD delights in a man's way, he makes his steps firm;   though he stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand.

Job 8:20-21 (NIV) 20  Surely God does not reject a blameless man or strengthen the hands of evildoers. 21  He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy.

Nahum 1:7 (NIV)  The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him.

The Bible nowhere indicates that God withdraws us from the troubles of life. In fact, we become more involved in life's troubles when we come to Christ. But he gives us power to go on with the battle.   Billy Graham (1918- )
