God the Multi-Tasker

As we go through life, we often get sucked into it so deeply through our circumstances, that we lose sight of the overall picture of what God is trying to do. Many times we don't even see how God's overall mission (to redeem His people from their sins) is applicable to our lives. In times like these Psalm 91 is a great reminder of how God comforts us in our time need even while He is accomplishing His mission. God is the ultimate multi-tasker. Nothing is too great for Him to do, nor is anything too insignificant for Him to do either...including assuring you that you are going to be O.K. despite the circumstance that you find yourself in.

The Psalmist writes in Psalm 91 if we trust God, he will deliver us from destruction. Notice that he doesn't write that God will deliver from your trials, but He will deliver you from the catastrophic effects of those trials. He will shield you and protect you and not allow them to consume you.

God will use your life's stories as inspiration for others who are going through similar trials to encourage and inspire them....and possibly save them. How cool is that! God will use your trials to redeem His people from their sins. God will use catastrophic events in your life to advance His mission while comforting and encouraging you.
