Feeling a little down?


Have you been feeling a little down lately? Like all hope is lost? Like you don’t have a way out?


You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. Isaiah 26:3 (NKJV)


Even when you think your circumstance is hopeless, it is not impossible for God. Our heavenly Father can meet your needs regardless of your present or past position. God can achieve far more than we can ever ask or imagine. He wants us to lean on and put our trust in Him.

Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. Philippians 1:6 (NKJV)

When you think the odds are against you, God will intervene on your behalf. 

Now is that Love or what! Our God can do the unthinkable!
  
All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. For the more we suffer for Christ, the more God will shower us with his comfort through Christ. Even when we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation! For when we ourselves are comforted, we will certainly comfort you. Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer. 2 Corinthians 1:3-6 (NLT)
