I will remember the deeds of the Lord;
yes, I will remember your wonders of old.
yes, I will remember your wonders of old.
Psalm 77:11
English Standard Version (ESV)
Bad times seem so much worse when they're happening. Later when we look back we may be in wonderment of how we ever made it. When we've gotten past the bad times we can often look back on them as a learning experience. We might even be able to laugh about it and realize things weren't as bad as they seemed at the time or might have been if they'd gotten worse.
God will guide us through the bad times if we allow him to do so. When we open our eyes to see what God gets us through we may be amazed. We hopefully will be thankful and give Him credit for what He has done. It's important for us to remember how we survived the darkest hours and how God has been there for the faithful in ages past for thousands of years.
None of us wants trouble, discomfort, pain, or sorrow. Sometimes these things will come our way. Always remember that we don't have to travel the difficult road alone. There is a reason and a season for everything. Live, learn, trust, and be thankful. God is there when we call upon Him.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
