What is more devastating than knowing you don’t have money to pay the rent or even feed your hungry children? Or seeing someone you love walk out the door, being diagnosed with an incurable disease, failing in school, the death of someone you love, or a mountain of debt you can’t repay?

We ALL experience times when life looks impossible. We lose the strength to go on. All too often, we’re alone, with no one to help us. We desperately need someone to come alongside us, to pick us up, to comfort us, to give us hope, courage, and the strength to go on. We need someone to share our burdens.

Like you, I’ve had those days. Sometimes, God placed people in my life to help me get back on my feet. Other days, God has done that himself!

The Greek word for comfort in the N.T. is parakaleó: To call to one's side, to exhort, to encourage, to comfort, to urge (Strong's Lexicon 3870)
God will come alongside you, to encourage (give hope, give strength, give courage to), to console (to ease grief and trouble).

On those darkest of days, open God’s Word and meet Him there. He will be there. And He will help you.

Psalm 23:4
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Matthew 11:28

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Philippians 4:6-7
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Now, call out him from a place of faith, knowing he is there for you and He wants to help you.
