When Everything Falls Apart

When life feels chaotic and somewhat out of control, He is the one that can hold us together. By no means am I saying that my life is falling a part. I feel as if that would be over dramatic and unnecessary. There are worse things that could be happening. What I am saying is that through whatever is going on, big or small, He is the one who holds us together. There are so many times where I allow myself not to turn to Him and turn to my own strength instead. Even when things feel as if they are falling apart, He is there to hold us together. Why do we so often turn to things that are not going to help us? Our friends can tell us over and over again what we need to do in certain situations, but nothing they say can compare to the comfort and love that we can experience from Him. Everything may fall apart. Everything may include all of our friends ditching us or turning away from us. How can we constantly rely on other people or the words of other people when His words are the ones that are going to get us through whatever we are going through? I am not saying that people cannot help or speak into us, but I am saying that we sometimes quickly turn to other people rather than turning to God. Other people can mislead us, but He will never mislead us. When things feel as if they are crashing, I want to allow Him to hold me together.
