Jesus has overcome this world and is ALWAYS present in every trouble that you encounter and you are never Alone. The river of the Holy Spirit fills you with joy and peace that cannot be fathomed.

You don’t have to face the tyrants of your life alone. You have God on your side. You serve a kind, compassionate, just and loving God. He’s with you, even on those days when you don’t feel His presence.

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not, and it shall be given him. James, the writer of this epistle encourages us to go to God for wisdom.

When you look to the Lord for help, you know He hears you. God sees your situation and He can make a difference in your life. You just have to ask Him.

Psalmist David tells God that it is His hands that made him and fashioned him agreeing with the creation of God in the book of Genesis. God says, “let us make man in our image.” 

God is so kind and gracious. The scriptures rightly describe Him as a very present help in time of trouble. God is not happy up there with somebody’s downfall or weakness. 

God protects His children like how a mother hen would her chicks. The hen broods over her young ones and protects them when a bird of prey is circling above their heads. 

In our weakness, we are made strong in the strength of the Lord. When we are lack peace, God’s peace will guard our minds and hearts. In the midst of turmoil and confusion, He will fill us with peace.

What does it mean to serve? The dictionary defines it as performing a duty for another person. God, in His immeasurable mercy and grace, rescued us from darkness and gave us a blessed hope and future. 

The blessings experienced by those who serve God are many. Think about how you can use your time, talents and treasures in service to God. God’s kingdom will continue to grow and flourish with or without our help.
