Dear Lord, I need you right now. I am feeling very beaten down. The stress from things that surround my life are getting to me. Friends, family, finances, it's like a big wieght on my shoulders. I can't find the strength I need to get out of this darkness. So, I turn to You once again. I surrender to You once again. I give to You my pain, my anxiety, my bitterness. Soften my heart Lord. I desire to be Your broken vessel, so that You may remake me into what is needed. What ever message others may recieve from my brokeness, may it bring healing to their own hearts. Speak to them, to their hearts, through mine. May I speak Your words, may I speak Your comfort into others. I pray we start seeing the evidence of You in our lives. May we slow down long enough to focus on You. May we hear that quiet whisper, may we smell that blooming flower, may we feel that cool breeze. And may we KNOW that in those things, there, we will find You. May we be reassured, that on that day we have no pain... no fatigue... no confusion... You are right there beside us. . .carrying us through another day. On that day, You are building up our strength to go another day... and another. May we recognize that day for what it is. . . a day filled with Your presence. And on that day, may we take time out. Time out to praise You. Time out to feel You. Time out to thank You.

Hi Sheri, even in the midst of your trials, you have words of comfort for someone else. God has called u for such a time as this. He has called u to encourage His people in your time of affliction. We can not tell anyone what the Lord can do, unless we experience it ourselves.The Lord tells us in His Word, II Corinthians 4:17, \"This light affliction, is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. He also tells us in II Corinthians 4:7-10, \"But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed, always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus that the life of Jesus that the life of Jesus also may be manifected in our body.So be encouraged my sister.Our Lord can do exceeling, abundantly more than we could ever think or ask. Hang in there and continue to do the work of the Lord. He promised that \"by His stripes were are healed\" So we are now waiting to see His manifestation of His power for all of us here at \"DSL\"!! Have faith! We all are going thru. It is the Lord that has sustained us all with His grace & mercy! He promised to be with us all, even until the end of the earth! I love U! I am here for u all!
Much love & prayers,
Chris
