321 Lamentations 3 – 5; 1 Peter 3
Here is the point when God has "ground your face into the gravel." It comes down to "God's loyal love couldn't have run out, His merciful love couldn't have dried up. They're created new every morning. How great your faithfulness! I'm sticking with God (I say it over and over). He's all I've got left." Even when we are being disciplined by God, or questioning God; go with God! It is counter-intuitive, but it is right. The Lord is all we have to begin with and it is all we will have in the end.
What is more important the outward or the inward? Christians and a lot of non-Christians would say it is the inward that counts the most. Peter is drilling that point home when giving instructions to husbands and wives. It is the inward that counts the most. Yet, how much energy, thought, and actual time do we spend on the inward? In the next forty-eight hours do some real time examination on the thoughts given to the inward. Maybe, you could even carry a small notebook to keep a record.
