I have always believed that no matter what is happening around us and to us it is important to be strong and keep a positive attitude. Sometimes though it is so very difficult, and yet without strength and hope there is no future.
There is a lot to be said for putting on a happy face and facing whatever life throws at us. But trying to do it alone can be daunting.
Philippians 4:6 (New International Version) Says "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God".
The peace we can know if we turn all of this over to God is immeasurable. Turning to friends and family that God has put in our lives to help us during times when our struggles are overwhelming can help refill our tank.
My favorite verse in the Bible is Psalm 46:10 Be Still and Know that I am God.
Hope is what keeps us going, keeps us focused and helps us to keep centered. Hope is one of God's most precious gifts.
So, my friend, I HOPE that God will sustain you and when things look all out of whack, remember Psalm 46:10 and Be still and know that He is God and He will give you the strength you need when you need it most.
I'm 63, 4ft.10 (I say vertically challenged) recently blond and enjoy being with friends and family. I believe that people don't laugh enough so I try hard to find the lighter side of things. I'm also a hopeless romantic.
