Why, my soul, are you downcast?
    Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
    for I will yet praise him,
    my Savior and my God.

Psalm 42:11 NIV

Have you ever tried to talk yourself out of a painful situation, convincing your heart and mind that everything is okay?

I know at times it’s so difficult for us to face the reality of life–how difficult and challenging it can be. A lot of things can cause us to be disturbed. If we let them occupy our minds, we give them the right to steal our peace, joy and hope.

Whatever the enemy is trying to do in your situation, don’t let him win. Fight whatever he’s trying to throw at you with the promises of God in His Word. Know that you can put your hope in God. We have a Savior who will help us in times of troubles. We can always run to God no matter how ugly our past is, how unworthy we feel now and how discouraged you may be.

God’s desire is for you to come before His presence and seek His love and protection. He will be in your lowest moment. He will give you strength in times of weakness. Remember that No weapon formed against you will ever prosper for God is for you. Whenever you feel down, crawl back to God and allow Him to raise you up. See yourself overcoming whatever trials you are facing. You are already Victorious in Christ Jesus! He has defeated the enemy at the Cross of Calvary! Be strong and courageous for He will help you get through your darkest moments.

Sincerely,

Abby Bern
