Sure Help in Troubled Times

Psalm 31:23
Once I said in my anguish, “I am shut out from your sight.” Yet you heard my plea, when I cried out to you.

We all go through times of darkness and suffering. It seems it is a necessary part of this mysterious journey. Even Jesus, the Son of God, suffered. Jesus was our ultimate model of how to live our lives. He shows us that God will go to any length to love us and will never reject us…even when we reject God! This is unconditional love. When the tough times come…try not to label them as “bad” because God will surely allow those times to transform us if we are open to it. Christ will be there with you in your times of trial…all the way through it. It’s the way of the cross. New life and resurrection always await us…on the other side of the struggle. Count on it!
