He lifts the needy from the ash heap.
--- I Samuel 2:8
"Their whole family is a dumpster fire."
Someone said this to me recently, describing a hurting person whose life was crashing and burning. Not only was this individual causing self harm through unwise choices, but the person's family appeared to enable the problems.
Is there hope? Yes. Even if the fire is never actively put out and is left to burn, eventually it will leave ashes. God can lift the needy from the ash heap.
Lord, when my life is on fire, please rescue me. When I see a dumpster fire nearby, show me how to help.
