Encouragement For My Phamily

Well, something interesting happened on David Phelps' message board in the Prayer Room. I was reading the prayer requests posted there and became so inspired to say something encouraging that I typed out the following message to everyone. I believe God gave me these words for those who need it. I hope it helps you as well.



God's gonna' take care of things. He always has and continues to do so today. Things don't always get fixed the way we planned they would, but that's because we can't see the whole picture and God can. What happens in the end is for the best according to the Kingdom of God. All we need to do is ask Him and let go of it all.

Everything that is pulling us all down now, will someday be over. It will either be over in this lifetime here on earth or it will certainly be over when we get to Heaven. There IS an end to suffering and pain. It just takes too long.......for us.

In trials, we are learning to lean on God and His abilities....not our own. We are learning who He is and what He's all about. We are learning about humility and true strength that only comes from our Father in Heaven.

We can all get through this mess that we are praying about one more day....and then one more day after that....and then one more, etc. ONLY because Jesus lives!

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

Be encouraged today and everyday. Help is there in Christ Jesus and the end is near.
