Tears of the chosen

Today as I fight for peace, I woke up  sad and feeling somewhat dismayed. But on my way to church a word if encouragement reignited my hope.

Psalm 56:8New Living Translation (NLT)

8 You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle.
 You have recorded each one in your book.

I find relief knowing this. So why should I feel sad? God loves me and wants the best for me. It is at these times, when I am not studying as I should, reading and hearing the word, that I feel this way.

Therefore my solution  to overcoming sadness and gloom: Stay in your word!

Matthew 6:33King James Version (KJV)

33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

There  is an old saying that tells us: "An idle mind is the devils workshop." Hence, Stay focused, busy working for the kingdom, building you.
