The song, God is Good, by Jonathan McReynolds is one that touches my soul. The first 2 lines of this song (see below) are ones that remind me that my struggles, my troubles can be the very thing that drives me closer to God.
I think back to some of the most difficult times in my life and I reflect that while in the depths of those battles, that I would seek God more diligently than ever before. It is in my weakness, that God reveals Himself to me and gives me strength to get through.
Lyrics: May your struggles keep you near the cross/ May your troubles show that You need God/ May your battles end the way they should/ May your bad days prove that God is good/ May your whole life prove that God is Good!
I hope you find this song and verse to be an encouragement to you today, especially if you are going through a difficult time.
