Nowhere to Turn? Wrong!

Have you ever had something come up in your life that makes you feel like you have nowhere to turn or go? As a Christian aren't we to walk by faith and not by what we see or feel? One of the greatest weapons of our adversary is a vicious trap, which tries to isolate you, getting you in his corner, and then overwhelm you with hopelessness that you have no way out. Maybe you've been there before? It's definitely not a place you want to frequent. But what we must see clearly is that this isn't the place God wants us to be. As a Christian we always have hope and help in the Lord, even if it doesn't feel like it or we don't see it. Our hope and help is the Lord Himself. Psalm 94:17-19 tells us, "Unless the Lord had helped me, I would soon have settled in the silence of the grave. I cried out, “I am slipping!” but your unfailing love, O Lord, supported me. When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer." These are such encouraging verses. The Lord is our Helper, our Support, our Comforter, and the reason for our hope and joy. Maybe today you find yourself in a difficult situation where you don't see answers, or a way out. Don't be discouraged, hopeless, or want to give up! Run to the Lord and don't take your eyes off Him. Run the race with endurance and hope in the Lord. He's not going to leave you or forsake you, because He loves you :)
