These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation; but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. John 16:33
In the hustle and bustle of life, things sometimes seem to be chaotic and spinning out of control. This can cause us to feel overwhelmed and downhearted.
When this happens, the best thing to do is to get in the Word. We are to be rooted and grounded (Ephesians 3:17) so that we may be steadfast and unmovable in the work of the Lord (1 Corinthians 15:58).
The Lord is our HOPE. Jesus is our Rock, our firm foundation upon which we can stand. Psalm 18:2 says, “The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.”
When our spirit within us begins to sink, we must remind ourselves to cheer up (John 16:33) because Jesus never fails and He is always by our side (Deuteronomy 31:6; Joshua 1:9; Isaiah 41:10; Matthew 28:20).
Remember to SMILE because Jesus loves you!
