"On the day I called, You answered me, You increased my strength of soul." (Psalm 138:3 NRSV)
David said, "I'm walking in the midst of trouble, but there was a day in the midst of walking in the trouble that I cried out to You. And, Lord God, You answered me." That's the most important thing.
We would like to say, "Lord God, I was walking in the midst of trouble and I cried out to You. And when I cried out to You, You made all my trouble go away." That didn't happen.
Sometimes God cares for us in the trouble. Sometimes He takes us out of the trouble. But more often He stands with us and walks with us through the trouble.
-- Dave Jeremiah, from Turning Point
