If I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there (Psalm 139:8, KJV).
A parent, frustrated with a child’s difficulties that have come as consequences of poor choices, might be tempted to say, “You made your bed; now you have to lie in it.”
But God says, “If you make your bed in hell, I will be right there with you.”
Yes, we will reap what we sow, but God does not abandon us as we harvest the consequences. He is a very present help in trouble, even in the trouble that is fundamentally of our own making.
He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee (Hebrews 13:5, KJV). Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world (Matthew 28:20, KJV).
