It Is That Way

 Genesis 31:3 Then the Lord said to Jacob, "Go back to the land of your fathers and to your relatives, and I will be with you."

For me today this is a simple reminder that God is always for me. There are going to be times that we feel overlooked, mistreated, misunderstood, etc. It is good for me to remember that the world doesn't care about me. It doesn't care about my thoughts, my feelings, or my well-being. Hopefully there will be individuals who will always be on my side, but with the way the world is, I can't count on that. The one constant and steady piece of truth is that God is always on my side. He is always for me. He is working all things for my good. It may not feel that way, or appear that way, but it is that way. God is good. Not sometimes, all the time. If I believe this truth, then it has to be so toward me as well. He is good to me all the time.
