In this world...you will have trouble! That is a promise Jesus made to us. He then promised that He has overcome the world!
John 16:33
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
The difficulty you are facing is not too much for HIM. However, when you are the one going through something, and your friends have snarky little comments or words of wisdom...you might want to smack 'em right in the nose! Well okay, maybe that is just me. Well meaning comments will never replace the power of prayer on your behalf.
I don't know what you are going through, I only know there are several friends of this ministry that are struggling right now. I want you to know...we pray for you.
When you can't carry the burden for someone you care about...you can carry them to Jesus in prayer.
This is for those of you who are hurting for whatever reason only you may know.
When we think of God in His mercy, caring about everything that is important to His children ...we know it is the MOST...not the Least we can do...Pray for each other!
D.L. Moody wrote, "Some people think God does not like to be troubled with our constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to come at all."
