I was spending some time with the Big Guy the other day and went through Psalm 73. It was really encouraging so I thought I would share. I am so thankful that we serve a God who provides for all of our needs! Thanks for reading. 

"When my heart was grieved
and my spirit embittered,
I was senseless and ignorant;
I was a brute beast before you.

Yet I am always with you;
you hold me by my right hand.
You guide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will take me into glory.
Whom have I in heaven but you?
and earth has nothing I desire besides you. 
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever. 

Those who are far from you will perish;
you destroy all who are unfaithful to you. 
But as for me, it is good to be near God. 
I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge;
I will tell of all your deeds."
Psalm 73:21-28 

When I was feeling a little discouraged God provided encouragement for me through his word. I am so thankful for a God who holds me by my right hand and leads me into His glory. I am so thankful that He reminds me that He is my portion forever.
