Day 323...(Habakkuk 1,2,3; Jeremiah 17; 1 Corinthians 14)..."Hope for Difficult Times"

Habakkuk is another book with a harsh message. It does end in affirmation of staying the course with God through the tough times. Here is the passage...

"Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights."

What is our though? Is it an oil spill? Something personal? Health? God is faithful. There is always hope...especially in the difficult times.
