Encouragement

[Chile40]

Some days, life is just hard. The days look dark. Uncertain times and stress mount high. An unexpected sicknesses or devastating loss can feel too difficult to face.
Though we may realize our faith is most strengthened, not in the easy times of life, but in the most trying, it’s often hard to work that out once we're swirling in the midst of it all. We long for carefree days, yet sometimes, God takes our hand and leads us straight into the darkest of times. Not to harm us, ever. But to bring greater strength, character, trust, beauty, and perseverance to the deepest part of our souls.
His desire for us in this life is ultimately to make us more like Him. To have relationship with us. He will not leave us sitting in dark days, but he will walk with us through, until we come out on the other side. Changed. Stronger. Renewed. With great purpose.
You and I need fresh hope today...we are not alone.
We are never forgotten.

He is with us.
Every step of the way.

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Ps. 147:3.
"The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit." Ps. 34:18.
