Humble yourselves before the lord

HUMBLE YOURSELVES BEFORE THE LORD
AND HE WILL LIFT YOU UP.( JAMES 4:10 *NIV )


Sometimes we all become depressed because of things
that happen in our lives. For sometimes we feel: WE ARE
HARD PRESSED ON EVERY SIDE, BUT NOT CRUSHED;
PERPLEXED, BUT NOT ABANDONED; STRUCK DOWN,
BUT NOT DESTROYED. ( 2 CORINTHIANS 4:8-10 )

Now when you feel the pressures of life remember
the words of king David, for he wrote: THOUGH I WALK IN
THE MIDST OF TROUBLE, YOU PRESERVE MY LIFE;
YOU STRETCH OUT YOUR HAND AGAINST THE ANGER
OF MY FOES, WITH YOUR RIGHT HAND YOU SAVE
ME. ( PSALM 138:7 )

THEREFORE WE DO NOT LOSE HEART. FOR OUR
LIGHT AND MOMENTARY TROUBLES ARE ACHIEVING
FOR US AN ETERNAL GLORY THAT FAR OUTWEIGHS
THEM ALL. SO WE FIX OUR EYES NOT ON WHAT IS
SEEM, BUT WHAT IS UNSEEN. FOR WHAT IS SEEN
IS TEMPORARY, BUT WHAT IS UNSEEN IS ETERNAL.
( 2 CORINTHIANS 4:16-18 )

So HUMBLE YOURSELF, THEREFORE,
UNDER GOD'S MIGHTY HAND, THAT HE MAY LIFT YOU
UP IN DUE TIME. CAST ALL YOUR ANXIETY ON HIM
BECAUSE HE CARES FOR YOU! Amen.
( 1 PETER 5:6-7 )
