David only asked one thing of the Lord. He desired to dwell in God’s house, to gaze upon his beauty, and to inquire of God in his presence.

Everything we need for our walk with God is available in the book of God. Even pain and loss. Especially pain and loss.

It is wholly right to ask for him to rescue, deliver, and guard us. It is an act of faith to take refuge in the Lord.

The King of glory who is strong and mighty has come to buy back everything contained on the earth and everyone who lives in the world. ...Stand firm under the comforting protection of our King of glory.

In the midst of pain, the truth remains that the Lord is a shepherd. I’ve heard more sermons than I can count about the helplessness of sheep. I understand now more than ever.

No one is immune to loss. Jesus experienced death because of brokenness; we will most assuredly experience pain and loss.

Brokenness seems to persist unabated. But it’s only an appearance. ...You need the eyes of faith to endure the darkness of loss.

There are answers in the day of trouble. You simply have to ask. Turn to God. Complain to God. But make sure you ask of God. And then, regardless of the answer, place your confident trust in God.

Speech and knowledge pour forth day and night. God is speaking to your soul in your pain. Are you listening?

Brokenness and loss deliver pain and danger to each of us. No one is immune. Cords. Destruction. Entangled. Snares. But the Lord is the strong tower to which we run.
