29 Fire and hail and famine and pestilence, all these have been created for vengeance;
30 the fangs of wild animals and scorpions and vipers, and the sword that punishes the ungodly with destruction.
31 They take delight in doing His bidding, always ready for his service on earth; and when their time comes they never disobey His command.
32 So from the beginning I have been convinced of all this and have thought it out and left it in writing.
33 All the works of the Lord are good, and He will supply every need in its time.
34 No one can say, ‘This is not as good as that’, for everything proves good in its appointed time.
35 So now sing praise with all your heart and voice, and bless the name of the Lord.
Sirach 39:29-35, NRSVACE
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you - 1 Peter 5:7
Remember, the goal isn't to win the argument: it's to win back the relationship. To love like Jesus is to step into the mess, with the intention of healing.
I really like this I saw it when I was trying to catch up on the glorify app
13 Therefore, take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day and, having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girded about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness,
15 and your feet shod with the preparation of the Gospel of peace.
16 Above all, take the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
Ephesians 6:13-16
Our Lady of Champion
“I will take you as My people, and I will be your God” (Exodus 6:7).
God desires that we know Him. He revealed and manifested Himself to His people through great deliverances, signs and wonders — and yet they did not know their God.
“For forty years I was grieved with that generation, and said, ‘It is a people who go astray in their hearts, and they do not know My ways’” (Psalm 95:10)
God is still looking for a people who will let Him be God to them. We are like Israel in that we have witnessed miracles, experienced manifestation of His presence and had our prayers answered. When troubles come we still doubt Him and we don't fully trust Him.
Rest in the knowledge that Jesus loves you dearly.
When the enemy comes in like a roaring lion, don't panic. When the floods overwhelm you, don't despair - just rest. Say, "God loves me — Jesus loves me. I know and believe in His love.” Let us be a people who know their God and know His ways.
