60 Seconds of Hope with Horace McMillon
When We Try Our Best And Things Still Go Wrong
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When We Try Our Best And Things Still Go Wrong
Sometimes we try to do the right thing,
and things still go wrong.
We still lose people.
Still get hurt.
Still face failure, disappointment, and even betrayal.
“He will guard the feet of his faithful ones…”
— from 1 Samuel 2:9
The Hebrew word translated “guard”
is shamar —
to keep watch over,
to carefully attend to,
to remain mindful of.
It is not a promise
that suffering will never come.
But a reminder
that we have not been abandoned
to the darkness around us.
Even in the hardest places,
God walks with us.
And we walk with each other.
I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.
