WHERE WOULD WE BE WITHOUT THE LORD? 

Can you imagine what your life would be like without the Lord? It’s not a thought I enjoy lingering on for long, but it crosses my mind when I consider all the blessings He has given me. We are truly blessed. How could we manage without Him? I am so grateful that He saved me. It’s the thought of not being blessed by Him that causes me to run to His tomb like Peter, seeking forgiveness and love, longing to hear His voice again. WHERE WOULD WE BE WITHOUT THE LORD?

Perhaps you were lost, hopeless, and clueless. Have you ever been in darkness? Have you ever been hopeless and desperate? Suddenly, out of nowhere, the Lord stepped into your life and delivered you out of the darkness into His marvelous and wonderful light. Oh, what a relief!

**Lamentations 3:19-26 (NIV)**: “I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall. I well remember them, and my soul is downcast within me. Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, ‘The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.’ The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.”

**Psalm 37:23-24 (NIV)**: “The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in Him; though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with His hand.” 

Truly, where would we be without His guidance and grace?

Peace and Love,
