I want to tell you about someone I know...I've known him all my life, and think of him as my forever friend. He knows everything about me: the good, the bad, and even the things I'm ashamed of...yet he still chooses to love me. When I think of just how deeply he loves me, it really blows my mind...I've never known love like this : selfless and unconditional. His are the arms I run to whenever I feel down or afraid, and it doesn't matter how late it is, whenever I call he answers. He tells me I'm beautiful, tells me I'm worth dying for, he has totally changed my outlook on life for the better. I want to introduce you to my friend, his name is Jesus, and he would love to get to know you better...
The joy of the Lord is our strength...it is not contingent on outward circumstances, feelings, or what we can readily see. God is strong, He is mighty to save, and like the good Father that He is, He cares about every area of our lives. He desires that in all things we would prosper, even as our soul prospers. He is never far away from our cries, no matter how isolated we may sometimes feel, He is closer than our very breath. No matter what raging sea lies before you threatening to engulf your very life, remember that we serve a God who can still the waves. No matter what furnace you find yourself standing in, remember that we have a Lord who walks in the fire with us, and keeps us from being burned by the flames . Is anything too hard for God? Trust Him, at the appointed time He will move on your behalf. “In my distress I called upon the Lord; to my God I cried for help. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry to him reached his ears.” Psalms 18:6 ESV http://bible.c
