How is it that whenever you find yourself in a desperate situation, it seems to be in the middle of the night, on weekends, or other times when no one is available? Whether you need instant wisdom or just a shoulder to cry on, there really is someone who never sleeps, and is waiting for you with open arms at any time of the day or night.
"In my distress I cried unto the Lord, and he heard me," David testified. He had a long chat with the Lord, crying: "I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war." (Ps. 120: 1;7)
God is who He says He is, and you can trust Him for all your needs and you can go to Him for every hurt! Nothing is either too big or insignificant to Him.
But, the Lord is always there for you! So, no matter what the problem or the time of day, as David learned, you can choose to make a decision and declare:
By physically looking up towards heaven, you make a conscious effort to take your mind off the earthly situation and look full into His radiant face. That's where your Hope is. He has the answer and the peace that you're looking for.
"Be still, and know that I am God." (Ps. 46: 10)
"The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. The righteous cry and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles." (Ps. 34: 15; 17)
