The Lord Jesus has promised to help His children (those who accepted Him as Lord and Saviour) in time of trouble. Having victoriously endured the most severe testings that could be visited upon any man (when He died on the cross for the sins of man), He understands what Christians feel and can satisfy their deep spiritual longings.
Christ is our wellspring of grace and is able to meet every need of every believer!!
Yes, "in every human need Christ is my all...for Jesus is all I need!!"
In hours of distress and trouble, we can look to Jesus and by faith, we will receive His inexhaustible wellspring of grace, for HE IS OUR SUFFICIENCY!!
Christ does not always take us out of trials and troubles, but we know deep down in our hearts that He does take us through them!!
A man penned these words of testimony: "Am I wounded? Jesus is balm. Am I sick? He is medicine. Am I poor? Jesus is wealth. Am I hungry? He is bread. Am I thirsty? He is water.
Am I in debt? He is my surety. Am I in darkness? He is my sun and shield. Must I face black clouds and a gathering storm? He is an anchor both sure and steadfast. Am I being tried? He pleads for me as my perfect Advocate!! JESUS IS ALL YOU NEED!!

Triumph over trial!!
Most of us find it difficult to sing in the time of sorrow, suffering, and trial. Yet, if we would understand that God has a reason for either ordering or allowing every pressure and trials we face, rejoicing would readily flow from our hearts!
If we have bitter disappointments, painful suffering, and shattering sorrow, if accepted in faith, can be a means of strengthening our character. Start to praise God for all the pressures...stop sighing and start rejoicing because you triumph over trial! Give your grateful song of praise to Jesus!!!

Cheer Up!
All around us are discouraged people - perhaps even in our homes. Today, let's look for ways to give them that needed encouragement!
True, everyone who deserves our praise should be recognized, but without flattery. As Book of Proverbs 12:25 says that..."heaviness in the heart of man weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up." And we should never say that something is good when it's otherwise. Yet no matter how imperfect a person may seem or how poorly he performs, we can always find something good to praise him.
A kindly word that was lightly spoken may stilled the pain of a heart that was nearly broken. So, if you see someone who need more encouragement give him one of yours!

Need Help?
Heard the word "incopability?" It's a coined word to describe the symtoms of man who had become so rundown, rockbottom and depressed that he felt he could no longer face life. Nothing's wrong physically but just can't cope with life anymore. (DB 83)
Many times in the past we've experienced persecutions, cast down or even afflictions, yet we can conquer "incopability." First, we have to learn and be optimistic that we're able to overcome the stresses of everyday life. Be confident and not lose heart because there's always an available solution in every problem we encounter. Second, list down your pressures that you feel may cause you pain and hurting. Third, find refreshment and comfort to deal with your stresses.
The good news is God is for us and in us, orchestrating our lives to look ahead to the future!
He gives hope for the hopeless, strength for the weary, peace for the striving, freedom for the oppressed! It is available to anyone who will receive it!! This is free!!!
