Don’t Eat Like a Pig

What difficulty are you going through right now? What are you struggling with? Sometimes problems seem to stack upon problems upon problems in our lives. Whether you are feeling completely buried under the stress and pressures of this life or you just have that one issue that is driving you crazy, call out to Jesus. Don’t be afraid to be honest with Him.

God already knows your thoughts, your fears, and your worries (Psalm 139:2). Pour out your heart to your loving Father who sent His Son to die on the cross so that you and He could have a relationship (John 3:16). Do not be ashamed to get down on your knees before God and weep as you pour out your heart to Him.

King David wept before God. He soaked his couch with tears—and he was a man after God’s own heart (Psalm 6:6; Acts 13:22). In Christ, God’s love for you cannot be shaken, and we are free to bring our requests before the God who hears us (Romans 8:38-39; Hebrews 4:14-16; 1 John 5:14).

No matter what you are going through, Jesus is with you and is working out everything for good, according to His kingdom purposes and promises (Matthew 28:20; Romans 8:18-30). God is near (Acts 17:26-28). No matter what you’re struggling with, know you can be honest with God today. • Rachel Nissing

• What are you afraid to talk with God about?

• Read Hebrews 4:14-16 and 1 Peter 5:7. Why can we bring anything before God? Why can we be honest with Him?

The Lord is near all who call out to him, all who call out to him with integrity. Psalm 145:18 (CSB)
