Title: My Times Are In Your Hands
Author: David Cawston
Text: Psalm 31:14-16
"...I am trusting you, O LORD, saying, "You are my God!" My future is in your hands. Rescue me from those who hunt me down relentlessly. Let your favor shine on your servant. In your unfailing love, save me. NLT
For those of us that deal often with the negative side of humanity life is tough.
I place myself in your place, we are always dealing with the hurt,

abandoned etc.
Because of the nature of our jobs we have a tendency to withdraw inside ourselves to our private worlds.
We handle this difficult side of life with either hardness nor cynicism.
In hardness we create a shell around ourselves of protection.
We don't show our emotions!
We put on a crusty front, and we want to be left alone.
In Cynicism we just become bitter.
We withdraw all the more and life becomes hopeless for us.
Yet underneath it all we are all hurting
But neither way is the right way to handle life.
Because deep inside we are all the same.
Deep inside we need answer!
Deep inside we need to know that God cares.
We lose our trust in humanity and many times are angry with God.
Let us look at what the Bible has to say to get strength to face this calamity!
We say "Why God?" "Where are you God?' "Why do you let these things happen?"
The Psalmist David asked these question in Ps 73.
"Does God realize what is going on?" ...."Is the Most High even aware of what is happening?" NLT
You see underneath it all we are all the same!
There are many things in life we can't control!
Positive thinking won't change them.
Change of attitude won't control them.
Complaining won't cha ...
