The StorytellerSample

When we are in the middle of something difficult, it’s easy to forget that anything good has ever happened to us. We tend to focus so much on the negative things happening currently that we forget the good things that have happened before. Maybe we even wonder if good things will happen again. 

Jeremiah reminds us in this verse of the best thing—the one good thing we can hang on to no matter what—and that is God’s love for us. His love, kindness, and presence in our lives can be the thing that carries us through hard times. It can be the thing that helps us remember that good things have come and will come again. This week, write this verse where you can see it or maybe even try to memorize it. Let it be the thing you focus on when you find yourself facing hard or difficult things.
