Such A Time As This

How can I make the most of my circumstances?

God’s Response

Blessed are those who trust in the LORD and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they go right on producing delicious fruit. Jeremiah 17:7-8

Who can say but that you have been elevated to the palace for just such a time as this? Esther 4:14

God wants to use you right where you are. His guidance isn’t just for your next big decision —he had a purpose in placing you where you are this moment. Look at your current circumstances as a calling from God. Serve and obey him in the little things today. God has placed you here for “such a time as this.”

God’s Promise

When darkness overtakes the godly, light will come bursting in. . . . Such people will not be overcome by evil circumstances. . . . They do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the LORD to care for them. They are confident and fearless and can face their foes triumphantly. Psalm 112:4, 6-8
