Words of Encouragement
John 16:33; Romans 15:1; Hebrews 3:13
While reflecting on the grim news that is bombarding our air ways while many are experiencing personal challenges I felt it was my Christian duty to impart words of encouragement. Allow me to say regardless of personal situation, remember Jesus Christ is present through the Holy Spirit who is our comforter, guide and present help in times like these. Remember God’s Words when He promised never to leave or forsake His own, and it has been my personal experience that when God seem to be far away is when He is the closest to us. Also, reflect on the famous poem “Footprints in the Sand” which depicts two people walking alone the beach with two set of footprints been seen and the two become one; this is when the Lord carries His child through the darkest point in their lives. What a great God?
Romans 15:1 encourage the “strong to bear the infirmities of the weak” which mean those of us who are not experiencing trial and tribulations lend a listening ear or speak a kind word to those who are going through their storm. Be assured that trouble is certain to knock on your door, but the comforting thought is found in John 16:33 where Jesus states that “in the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” Thank God for Jesus!
In closing, allow me to impart these words of wisdom, through it all God is still in control. Remember Job and his situation, Satan had to get permission from God to afflict Job, but God saw Job through and blessed him immensely. Satan was not allowed to touch Job’s soul, our souls belong to God and He is going to protect what’s His. As God protected Job and brought him through He will do the same for you and I. Lastly, through all the turmoil that many are facing, whether personal or public look to God and “cast your cares on Him.”
Cheer up tomorrow is a brighter day-- God is in control.

Absolutely! God is in control...all the time. No matter what the situation appears to be. What the enemy meant for harm...God will make for your good. Thank you!
