Child, why are you despondent? It’s because you’re looking around at what you see. You aren’t looking to Me.
Lord, I want Your Presence. I want my prayers answered. You are my only hope. So forgive me. Help me to love You with all My heart, soul, mind, and spirit.
Lord, I’m so confused about life in general. It seems there’s so much heartache, so much struggle, and so many hurting. But Lord, I know You are our only hope. You are our only hope.
I guess I just want to sit in my room, pray, read Your Word, and withdraw from life outside. Yesterday, instead of victory, all I seemed to feel was just sadness.
As I look around all I see is disappointment, heartache, coldness of others and death, even the shooting of children. Lord, all these families are greiving due to unnessary death caused by the hate of another.
Child, look at the miracle of your friends. Both were on ventilators and at the edge of life. But now, both are out enjoying their lives to the fullest.
Child, mainly what you’re looking at is your self. You feel trapped in your life curcumstances. But I have already arranged yur freedom. So rejoice. Hold yur head up high. For I have already arranged your freedom from sin. Isn’t that the heaviest weight of despair there is?
Yes Sir. What about . . . ?
Child, how many times have I told you? Don’t look at what you see. Instead, look at Me.
Many times, Lord. Many times.
This is why you are desponsant today. Because you’re looking around at waht you see. Now I tell you, come to Me when you are despondant.
As a matter of fact, when despondant, start listing things to thank Me for. Count yur blessings. Name them one by one. Count your blessings. See what God has done.
It’s so easy for you to get caught up in despair at what you see. But open your eyes and see the blessings I’ve sent your way.
Even when you are despondant at your job, count your blessings. Then you can watch as I turn all things around for I intend to do just that – turn all things around.
Yes, your hope is not a man, but I can use a man for Mu purpose and My glory. So keep your eyes on Me. Then watch and see what I will do.
I am a God of victory and I always win. No matter what you see.
Lord, how is a school shooting You winning? How is My friend sufferings from cancer You winning? What about those I love living in defeat and suffering, how is that winning? What about horrific storms destroying everything in it’s path, you winnng? What about wars, and allowing evil men to go through killing and torturing innocents?
I don’t understand. Guess I’ll never undersatand. But Lord, I need hope. Otherwise, it’s easy to get caught up in complete despair. Help me to see and behold Your victory.
Child, open your eyes to see My victory. Right now all you see is the blaring loud headlines. They don’t tell you of victories achieved. Satan wants you in despair. Therefore all he presents is defeat, despair and despondency.
I want you to see My victory. See the many victories
