The writer of Psalm 81 spoke of God?s ability to provide ?honey from the rock,? pointing to the truth that God?s sweetness is often found in the wilderness. We may not want to face them, but the ?rocks? in our own lives are the very places where God draws closest.

Dust and rocks are a natural part of our sinful world. Some may be small, others so large that we feel crushed. But the wilderness will not destroy us. We have a good shepherd that walks by us in the darkest hours of life.

Our world glorifies leisure, so it?s hard to go to the ?wilderness? where life?s challenges confront us. Few of us go there by choice. But most of us will walk through the wilderness at some point during our faith journey. When we do, we can count our shepherd to guide us safely through.

Do you trust God to walk with you even in the wilderness?
