TCN's Biblical Journey June 19th

Today's reading is Psalms 128-132.  (relax these are short)

That walk in his way...


I like Psalm 128. It is a reminder that God gives rewards to those who are faithful. I hope you understand that not everything in life will go well, but God’s ultimate purpose is for those who serve him to be rewarded.

Jesus makes it clear in the New Testament about the trials and troubles which come, and Job is a harsh reminder we won’t always understand why bad things happen, but this doesn’t change God’s character. He wants to reward those who are faithful to him. 

God will reward us and even in the midst of the dire situations listed in Romans 8, we see in verse 28 that God will work ALL things together for good for those who serve him. So, in this life or in the next, those who serve God faithfully are rewarded. If some of those rewards do come in this life (wealth, family, peace) then make sure and give God praise for them.
