"Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28 NLT
Weary, wounded, and broken are many these days. Take courage and know GOD will go with you giving you rest through out your journey. HE doesn't promise us freedom from struggles, but HE does promise to be with us all the way through them.
"But now, O Jacob, listen to the Lord who created you.
O Israel, the one who formed you says,
“Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you.
I have called you by name; you are mine.
2 When you go through deep waters,
I will be with you.
When you go through rivers of difficulty,
you will not drown.
When you walk through the fire of oppression,
you will not be burned up;
the flames will not consume you.
3 For I am the Lord, your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.
I gave Egypt as a ransom for your freedom;
I gave Ethiopia[a] and Seba in your place."
Isaiah 43: 1-3 NLT
By HIS mercy and in the grip of HIS grace,

Thank goodness He loves us so! A very encouraging post!
Meant to say also I love that picture.
Discouragement has surrounded so many people. Thankfully, we serve a God that loves us just the way we are and in spite of our circumstances. I really liked this.
Bless you my friend for the inspiration. I love you.
