Wow! I am so tired and it seems to be a perpetual condition anymore. It isn't just a physical exhaustion, but a mental fatigue as well. I am afraid that my batteries are just not being fully recharged like they should. Anyone else feel this way?
I'll bet that there is and I want to share with you a message that Paul shared with the Corinthians.
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9
Every time that I read this I remember who is there holding me up when the waves are crashing in. God loves me and doesn't want me to fail! When I seek God, everything else becomes manageable. My troubles don't disappear, but with Christ all things are possible. Those mountains just don't feel as insurmountable when I can feel God by my side.
God loves you and doesn't want you to fail either! I pray that you will seek God's kingdom and let Him lift you up today, too.

Bereaved...
I lost a dear friend a few days ago. I am saddened and grieved by the loss, but I am comforted by the fact that she had a relationship with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour.
She suffered a lot pain at the end of a battle with cancer, but she continued to cry out to Jesus and pray. I can only hope to do the same when my time comes. Her family is wounded by the loss of such a dear soul. Please, take a moment to pray for them.
Her husband writes and sings songs for the Lord. One of his songs is called "Too Much To Gain To Lose". It is one that I love and is so true. We have another loved one waiting for us over there. There is less and less of interest to me in this world, but more and more in God's Kingdom that beckons to me.
"He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." John 3:36
I pray that the Lord will beckon each of you to share in His Kingdom. May God be with us all.
