Still Standing

An Inspirational Devotion From Pastor Brian
 
July 21, 2025

Life may be hard, but God is still holding you.

Does life feel difficult today? Maybe it seems like everything changed overnight. One day you feel like you're on top of the world. The next day, it feels like the world is on top of you. That’s how life goes sometimes. It can shift fast.

But here’s the truth. God never changes. He is steady when everything else feels shaky. The Bible says He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. That means His love stays the same. His power never fades. And His Word always stands.

I remember visiting the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse on the coast of North Carolina. It’s the tallest lighthouse in the United States. Someone asked the park ranger, “How many storms has it survived?” The ranger smiled and said, “All of them.”

That answer stuck with me. It made me think. How many storms have you survived?

The answer is the same. Every single one.

Even when it felt like the world was falling apart, you’re still here. Not because life was easy, but because God was faithful. And the same God who brought you through before is the same God walking with you today.

So when life gets hard, take a deep breath. Remind yourself of this one truth.

Until next time, remember to take time out for God, because God always has time for you!

Sticky Statement:
The storm didn’t stop you. God brought you through.

Questions To Think About:

1. What storm has God already carried you through?
2. How can that memory give you strength today?
3. What would it look like to trust Him in this moment?

 
Prayer For Today:

"Lord, thank You for always being faithful. Life is not always easy, but You are always good. You brought me through before, and I believe You will do it again. Help me stand strong today, knowing I am not alone. In Jesus’ name, Amen."
