Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
Psalm 42:11
Psalm 42 speaks about longing for God, even when the psalmist was discourage, when he couldn't find God and when ppl around him taunted him about his faith, He never stopped longing for God, and instead of dwelling on his desertion, he chose to concentrate on the good things God did for him and the good time he had in His presence.
We don't have to dwell on past glory, but whenever we feel we are alone or forsaken, we can remember all the good things God did for us and believe He'll do more great things.
I love the story of the man who told the most difficult times in his lives was when he saw only one set of footprints and thought that was when God left him, But God told "That was when I carried you".
At times we might not know what God is up to but we need to remind ourselves that He is always working on our behalf.
