Even as I slog…. (devo reflection)

2 Chron 28:1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. Unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD.

Lord, Thank You for helping me make it to the end of a very long week. I feel like I am limping towards the finish line, but I know You are with me, and that is a gift and a comfort.

2 Chron 28:2 He followed the ways of the kings of Israel and also made idols for worshiping the Baals.

Lord, Thank You that I do not have to pretend with You. You know my struggles, my fears and doubts, my frustrations. Help me to keep my eyes and heart on You, Lord. You are sovereign and steadfast. Thank You for holding me.

2 Chron 28:5 Therefore the LORD his God delivered him into the hands of the king of Aram….

Lord, Thank You for this day and this scripture. Thank You for the reminder to draw closer to You, even as I slog through. Help me, Lord. Draw me closer. Amen.

2 Chron 28:22 In his time of trouble King Ahaz became even more unfaithful to the LORD.

Have a blessed day.
