Jesus carried our sins and our sorrows to the cross (Isaiah
53:4). He lifts up everyone who falls and carries those who are
exhausted (Psalm 145:14). He heals our broken heart and He
binds up our wounds (Psalm 147:3). Everything is possible once we
start to believe in God's faithfulness (Mark 9:23).
He rescues godly people from trials, because we put our hope in Him (2 Peter 2:9; Psalm 39:7). God will give us grace only for today, because tomorrow's grace will not come until tomorrow. As long as we are alive, we still have hope in His promises (Ecclesiastes 9:4; 2 Peter 1:4).
When we put our expectation in God rather than in our self, people or karma, our soul is no longer depressed or worried (Psalm 43:5). We find rest in God alone, because our only real hope comes from him (Psalm 62:5).

God is our helper and we have no reason to live in fear.
All we have to do is to cry out to the Lord and to pray to Him for help. He
always hears us, because our cries reach His ears (Psalm
18:8).
When trouble surrounds us on every side, He always gives us a way out. Even though life is hard at times, He strengthens us, helps us and holds us up with His strong right hand (Isaiah 41:10; 2 Corinthians 4:8).

Total surrender to God is the key to making sense of your
circumstances. Surrendering our family and our future to God, walking away from
the worries and leaving it all in His hands is the only thing that will keep us
sane. Walking in obedience to His Spirit moment by moment through the day will
bring us closer to intimacy with God than anything else we could ever do.
Prayer:
Father God, teach us that full surrender of our life to You
is the safest place to live. When we get our eyes off our self and onto You,
You keep us in perfect peace (Isaiah 26:3). You lead us one step at a time (Matthew
6:31-34). Remind us not to look at tomorrow, but to look at today
and to obey Your Spirit, even if we do not like what is happening and we do not
want to obey.
Thought for the Day:
The Lord remains close to the desolate and He
saves those who are trampled by life's circumstances. - Psalm 34:18
