Happy 2nd quarter of 2022!

Can you believe that??  Time does not slow down!

Some things never change though.  Basically, every day, we get news that troubles us, makes us worry over something, now and then, devastates us and, praise the Lord, sometimes makes us very happy.  This, I guess, is called life.

The thing we have to remember though, is that God can turn the tears to joy, the sorrow to hope and the fear into peace.

I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace.  In this world you will have trouble.  But take heart!  I have overcome the world.”  John 16:33

Put on the full armor of God!  Be prepared to meet your Goliath and place your faith in the One than can fight the battle for you!  “He can help you to “see beautiful again.”

Pray Unceasingly!!

Maybe you’ve received unsettling test results from the doctor’s office.

Maybe your teenage or adult child has gone rogue and will hardly speak to you.

Maybe you feel trapped in a life that is routine and mundane.

Maybe you’ve recently lost someone who is dear to you.

Maybe your marriage isn’t the “happily ever after” you were hoping for.

Maybe you’ve become cynical and jaded from everything life keeps throwing at you.

There can be a hundred different reasons for the fact that when you look around at your circumstances, things appear broken, botched, and burning to ashes. 

But God has a trade-in deal for you.

His beauty for your ashes.

You give Him your tears, frustrations, heartaches, apathy, disappointments, and discontent—and He will exchange them for hope …for peace …for a fresh perspective. 

He can help you to “see beautiful again.”
