Have you ever had a struggle?? You, those daily things that happen that can sometimes take your joy away??
I know.. it happens to us all.. life has a way of being difficult!! It can go on for days and months… and we can get sidetracked by what our circumstances are and sucked in to a negative place.. I know – it can get bad!!
So, my question to you is, what do you do in those moments?? How do you cope? How do you get through it??
Do you hide and pretend nothing’s wrong?? Do you withdraw from everyone around you? Do you cause pain to those who are trying to help you??
No matter how hard, how terrible the storm may be.. please remember, Jesus loves you! He is right there by your side! He will not let you fall. Put your trust in Him, and Him alone!! Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. No one can go to the Father except through Him (John 14:6).. You will make it through!! Jesus is mighty and strong, He is near to the broken hearted, He hears our cries, and answers at the perfect moment.
As the picture above says, I would much rather be going through the hard times with Jesus, rather than have a life without Him… Be encouraged!! Don’t lose faith!!! He is able to do a mighty work in you, with you, through you!!
I would like to note… that sometimes, those amazingly beautiful times, God blesses your life in the most unexpected ways, and life is really really good!!! 🙏 Days that are filled with laughter, joy beyond words, and a sense of fulfillment that nobody but the Lord can give!! And these moments can truly be appreciated by us when we have gone through difficult situations…
This is a terrible example, but it’s like when you put salt on watermelon 🍉 , it tastes sweeter!! (never tried that🤢, but that’s what people say lol 🤣).. So don’t be afraid of the struggles, the circumstances are just shaping you to be stronger, stretching your faith muscles 💪.. these situations can help you appreciate life in a way you would otherwise be unable to!
