Deuteronomy 4:30-31 -- On Tribulation and Turning

"When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the Lord thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice;
(For the Lord thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them."
Deuteronomy 4:30-31


I like this promise for us in the latter days.  No matter what happened in the past, God promises us that he will help us, and make good on the covenants of the past if we choose to be obedient and honor them.  God doesn't want us to fail because of our environment or our upbringing or anything that happened before.  He's willing to let the bad things go and hold on to the good things and give us a chance to see who we want to be and choose for ourselves.

Today, let's turn unto the Lord in our tribulation.  He will be with us, and help us to prosper, and give us every opportunity to succeed.  He truly loves us as we are, and will help us to become more of what we want to be. :)  Sticking with him is the best of all possible worlds. :)
