Psalm 78:50-55
English Standard Version (ESV)
The Psalmist forgets to mention that the Israelites complained the entire way to the Promised Land.
It's easy to forget what God has done. We get wrapped up in self, we get wrapped up in the latest and newest, and in the midst of it all we wonder where God has been, omitting the fact that God has been there the whole time, through every celebration and moment of despair. God has never left you, and he will never leave you. The triumph that comes at the end of the long night is possible only because God has led you through and forward and over, and God is there in the moments of joy just as much in the moments of despair.
May you trust in God's presence
