Hope in the Dark

Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.
Proverbs 25:25 NIV

I love hearing praise reports of God's faithfulness - especially in the middle of all this craziness in the world today. Take hope! Be encouraged! God is still on the throne and still answering prayer and still receiving praise!

For eleven long years, my friend has been praying for her husband to be free from alcohol addiction. She stood fast, believing. She told God, "I don't know the year, the month, the day, the minute, or the second You will do it, but I know You WILL!" And He has!! Six weeks ago, her husband laid it at the feet of Jesus and is now joyfully working his way through Celebrate Recovery.

1st Thessalonians 5:11, NLT reads, So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing. Let us rejoice with those who are rejoicing! Don't give up praying for one another's burdens. Take hope! Be encouraged!

Prayer:

Father,
           We thank You for changing hearts and lives! We give You praise for deliverance! We thank You for the means to be able to share the Good News of Your saving Grace. Help us to always abound in spreading Your hope and encouragement and comfort. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
