Trouble Jun 28 2009
“I, even I, am He who comforts you.” - Isaiah 51:12
Corporate downsizing. Rebellious teenagers. An unfaithful spouse. A devastating illness. Life often brings trouble our way. Sometimes we are so overwhelmed we struggle to merely stay afloat. Difficulty during times of trouble should come as no surprise to students of the Bible. Jesus Christ said in John 16:33, “In this world you will have problems.” That doesn’t sound like a very optimistic outlook. However, He goes on to say, “But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Now, that message is positive indeed!
Trouble. Difficulty. These things are a reality in this life. Jesus Christ promises us that He has provided victory over those things which cause us so much pain. Trusting in Him is the key to overcoming these problems.
Why not evaluate your present struggles from a Biblical perspective—from Christ’s perspective? You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!

Yes, report it NevermindBased on the lack of comments lately, I guess everyone is on vacation! Have a safe Fourth. Take a few moments to relflect on what it was that made this the greatest country in the history of man. Hint: It wasn't big government or the cradle to grave nanny state.
Many of us are going through very stressful times personally and as families. I don't know how folks make it without the love of Jesus and the support of our brothers and sisters in Christ. I have read Phillipians 4:6-8 everyday for the last 3 months!
God bless you all and God bless The United States of America.

Yes, report it NevermindGrant, That has always been one of my favorite Scriptures as well. In a time of great confusion and opposition we surely need "the peace that passes all understanding" Your reminder to reflect upon the greatness of our country is needed as we think of the men and women who sacrificed to establish a free nation by the power and direction of our Lord.
