When we see someone hurting, we should be a friend who uplifts them.   #daybydaylw   Interested in learning more about becoming a devoted follower of Christ? Go to follow.lifeword.org!   ~~~   Friend, are you in the wilderness, knowing not which way to turn or walk? Are you in a season where there is a trail of tears behind you. It may be that you are there because of your own doing and choices you have made. Very possible. Will you have faith enough to say with David, “whatever comes, I will trust the Lord. I desire and long for his favor, but I will submit to his discipline as well, for whatever comes my way as His child, it is ultimately good.” And on that trail, when prayers are made as you walk up the mountain, you can trust that God’s answer is already walking up the other side to meet you. You may not be walking through a trail of tears of your own this morning. But what we have seen in these events are people who are willing to walk with David in his grief. Ittai, Zadock, Abiathar, and now Hushai. Friends who stick closer than a brother. Friends who are willing to lay down their lives, their time. Friends who are willing to walk the dusty trail, so that it won’t be a trail of loneliness. Are you that friend today? Are you willing to hold up the weak arms of another, and help straighten the collapsing knees? Or will you sit on the sidelines as the caravan of hurt passes by?
