Psalm 31:15
Psalm 31:15
My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.
This verse speaks to the intimate care and trust that we are to place in God, especially in times of waiting. When we are faced with challenges, whether they involve health struggles, emotional pain, or any form of distress, we can take comfort knowing that our times are in God’s hands. It can be difficult to trust God when life feels uncertain, but this verse encourages us to place our trust fully in Him. It reminds us that God has perfect timing and is never early or late—He is always right on time. Just as the psalmist called on God to deliver him from enemies, we are called to trust in God's deliverance from all things that threaten our peace and health. Our health, both physical and emotional, is in His hands, and we can rest in the knowledge that God is working things out for our good. Let this verse inspire us to trust Him more deeply, to wait for Him patiently, and to rely on His protection and care. Whether in times of struggle or seasons of waiting, we can always trust that God is faithful and in control of all that concerns us.
