Bible Verse of The Day – 6-11-20

James 4:8 (NKJV) 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

Are you broken today?

Have you been through something and you are grasping for anything to make your heart beat again? Something that will take the pain away?  Anything that will make you smile again, or at least give you a sense a peace?

These recent days have been tough for a lot of people. It hasn’t been easy with the abrupt changes around the world. Not knowing when we might ever feel right again is frightening, tiring and stressful.

Life has changed deeply for some. For others, maybe not as badly, but we are feeling different than normal, waiting for something to bring some kind of relief from the hardship we are battling.

Searching for a quick fix is not the answer we need today. No one can give us a quick fix when we need to heal or fix an ongoing problem. So, please don’t get discouraged if you are still unsure of how things will be as we move forward.

We want you to know one thing for sure that will hopefully give us all a little peace of heart and mind. God is here. He has not left us. He is forever going to be here for us, no matter what, as long as we draw near to Him.

Some may grow hard from their experience, depending on how hard the hit is. Some will be saddened and a bit discouraged, while others will say, “I am not going down without a fight”, and then they get so tired and burnt out that not only will they go down, but they will not get back up.

We are not going to give you a quick fix type of answer today. We are going to give you God’s word.

Deuteronomy 31:6 (NIV) 6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Let’s stay close, be strong and courageous and let Him fix our brokenness over time. He will not leave us.
