Emotional ruts are old thought patterns that cause us to fall into futile activity. We can liken it to a hamster in a wheel. Oh it is really active, but it is going nowhere other than in endless circles.

We are called to worship our Creator. Isaiah 43:7 says, “Everyone who is called by My name, whom I have created for My glory; I have formed him, yes, I have made him.” Jeremiah 1:5 says that He knew us before He formed us in the womb.

Psalm 46:1 says that the Lord is ever present in our times of trouble. His Presence is present. Our faith is now faith. Note that the Lord’s help in our past, will not be duplicated in the present. Every circumstance is unique. He desires to reveal Himself to us according to our present need. Let’s not miss what the Lord is doing in our present.
