There're bound to happen!

Good Morning! Sorry about yesterday, but I hit the ground running yesterday. It was my day off lol! John 16:33 and we all know this one. Jesus told His disciples and us! "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." Today will you all say a prayer for a friend of mine Janie, she is having some rough times. And that is what we are all here for to help each other in those times. You know Jesus tells us right here we are going to have troubles in this world. But the more trust we have in Him, the less we worry about them. I heard a saying once, That God is not as concerned about what you are going through today, as he is as how you handle what you are going through! You see when we let the troubles of this world steal our Joy and make us worry, we are showing little faith in God. Jesus gave us His Spirit to be with us always! And no matter what we are going through that Spirit is there to give us peace. But if we don't use it, Troubles will be Troubles for us. So today when troubles happen, remember Jesus told us they would. But he also so told us we could have Peace in Him, knowing that He is right there with us, to help see us through. I like the slogan on the back of our new Celebrate Recovery shirts, it says! kNOw You're not Alone (Deut 31:8) "The Lord Himself goes before you and will be with you: He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged." So if you are having troubles today, put your trust in him. And there is another saying I know from AA, "And this to shall pass" So today if you are down in the dumps because of troubles, all you have to do is look up! HABD!
