February 1 – In just one day

In just one day, today, I was nearly mistaken for not having correct documentation to return to a country of departure, my plane landed about an hour and a half (by bus) from where it was supposed to, I missed a transition stop I was supposed to get off of and ended up leaving my handbag (which contained my passport,...), heard some disappointing news and ... In just one day.

In yet the same day, I read two uplifting books, got home safely and met my family safely, got my handbag in time (before the train pulled away), bonded with family ... and some strangers, got some information on a project I am working on and ... in yet the same day.

And verses that come to mind are:

“For His anger endureth but a moment; in His favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.” Psalm 30v5

“For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.” Proverbs 24v16

Many things may happen to us, all in one day, but our God is very faithful, and is indeed an ever present help in trouble.

Have a glorious day.

Verses for thought:
“We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;” 2 Corinthians 4v8&9
