Sudden tragedies can bring up many unanswerable questions - but the one question we need to be most concerned with is - "Am I right with the Lord if such a tragedy were to come to me?"

We're to know and acknowledge the Lord as the One True Living God and worship and glorify Him accordingly.

Seek the Lord at the time he may be found and be filled with the blessed joy of His forgiveness.

When faced with challenging and seemingly hopeless situations we need to humble ourselves before the Lord and get real with Him about our helplessness and we will find real hope and strength.

We can find contentment in the Lord as we stay calm in trials remembering God's sovereignty; keep our cool by trusting in His judgments; and standing confident in the truth of His Word.

In Psalm 22 we have the suffering of Jesus on the Cross. As Jesus came to identify with us in our misery so that He might be our perfect sacrifice for sin - we're called to identify with Him as we suffer knowing He will bring us comfort and victory.

When feeling discouraged, remember the good things the Lord has done for you in the past, remember His perfect attributes, and cling to what you know to be true - the promises of His Word.

In times of spiritual drought - earnestly seek the Lord and clint to the promises of His Word with every fiber of your being so that you might regain confidence in faith and trust Him even though circumstances remain the same.
