During My Discouragement I Found Encouragement

I Was Discouraged… But Jesus Found Me! I was so discouraged the way things were going. I was frustrated and upset. And it was showing! I was about ready to give up on everything I tried… And remember the nights I laid awake and cried. I thought of God. Whom I once had professed… But now was doubtful, confused and so depressed. Just then, I felt a voice coming down, And soon felt God’s love and presence all around! His voice spoke clearly that particular day. And spoke three words to me; “trust and obey!” These words had a new meaning and touched my heart. For Jesus has loved me. Right from the start! I poured out my heart to him with every burden. He rolled back the dark clouds and “heavy curtain.” He helped me to focus and give my worries to him. As a new life began to transform from within! I’ve given to him my every problem and every need. His word and spirit has given a new direction to lead. Won’t you allow him to change your life this hour? And experience his love and life-changing power??? By Jim Pemberton 10/14/10
