Psalm 77:2

The Bible and psychology remind us that all our emotions are functional and that we must learn to manage them in an appropriate manner and at the right time. The psalmists and Jesus seem to have understood this concept perfectly.

Natural disasters—such as hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, fires, tornadoes, even pandemics—often strike without warning. The shock, fear and sense of outrage can be overwhelming, leaving you feeling completely helpless and abandoned. In the midst of devastation and loss, be assured that God is with you—loving you and caring for you, “always ready to help in times of trouble” (Psalm 46:1).

When trauma or tragedy strike, it can seem to us that it’s impossible to live again. Neurosurgeon Lee Warren—who has endured his own personal tragedies—says you can survive, find your feet, reinvigorate your faith, and even experience happiness again. His treatment plan works. And hope is the first dose he prescribes.

Night often brings quiet, reflection, and sometimes restless thoughts. When the noise of the day fades, our minds replay conversations, worries, and unanswered questions. But Scripture shows that the night can become a powerful moment of communion with God. Midnight Contemplations explores how believers can use the stillness of the night to reflect, pray, meditate on God’s Word, and speak truth to their souls. Through the examples of the psalmists, this devotional invites you to turn late-night thoughts into intentional moments of prayer, worship, and trust in God.
