God is greater than the highs and lows

It’s easy to get caught up in the highs and lows of life. The joy of success and the pain of failure can both be intense and all-consuming.

But as Christians and followers of Jesus, we are reminded that God is greater than any situation we may face. His love and grace are constant, and he is always with us, even in the darkest of times.

It sounds like a nice easy quote, but I can honestly tell you that God really is always with us even in the deepest valley during the dark night of the soul.

In this blog, we will see how God can help us god is greater than the highs and lows overcome the highs and lows of life and find peace and joy in him.

What are highs and lows?

This is a good place to start. What I mean by this, and let’s take ‘highs’ for example are the mountain top moments, the glory days, the thrill of victory.

This could be the birth of a child, a first house, an engagement or marriage, or a beautiful trip.

The highs are any positive or joyful experiences.

The lows are the opposite.

Those negative and difficult experiences. The valley moments, the dark night of the soul, the agony of defeat.

Loss, grief, and failure could all fall into this category.

Life is a full-contact sport and we encounter highs and lows as we meander and journey through it.

The Bible is full of scriptures that bring comfort in tough times. Here are a few:

Scriptures for when life is good

When life is going well, it can be easy to forget that it’s because of God’s blessings. It’s important to remember to give thanks and praise to Him for all the good in our lives. Here are a few verses to reflect on in these times:

Psalm 100:4-5 – “Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.”

Philippians 4:6-7 – “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

No matter the highs and lows, God is greater. His love endures forever, and he is always with us.
