Who do you run to in times of trouble? Do you reach for the phone or run to the throne? Many people have a long list of supporters who they depend upon when things get a little rough. Most of us would say our mother, best friend, spouse etc. Where on the list is Jesus? Next to which number is God?
Please remember, they are there and their greatest joy is to comfort you when things go wrong, to rejoice with you each time you take a step forward and to catch you when you fall. Jesus loved you enough to die for you, surely such a sacrifice speaks volumes of love...why not trust Him with your problems. He has said He'll never leave you, why do you search for company when in sorrow? He has said He will never forsake you, so why do you say or feel you are alone? He waits with open arms to comfort, heal, help, strengthen, lift, carry, hold, calm, rescue, protect, raise and bless you. There has never been a problem that He couldn't solve, a heart that He couldn't mend, an illness that He couldn't cure...or a cry that He couldn't hear.
"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 8:38-39)
