We all need a cheerleader........don't you think? I have a friend like this. She lives far from me now but she is the one person I know that when I am down on myself, she always manages to say a profound thing to me that sticks with me and lifts my spirit. Recently she said this to me, "well you know Max, we all need a cheerleader." Sometimes we try to lift ourselves to no avail. But there is ONE who is there for us, that will lift us out of our pits and bring us joy again to our souls. We need only to humbly turn to HIM.......
PSALM 71: 20 "YOU, WHO HAVE SHOWN ME GREAT AND SEVERE TROUBLES, SHALL REVIVE ME AGAIN, AND BRING ME UP AGAIN FROM THE DEPTHS OF THE EARTH."
But where can we go when there is no one there to spur us on?
Where do you go when all life is in turmoil and those around you don't understand? Where do you turn when no one will listen to your heart?
TURN TO JESUS TODAY........YOUR ADVOCATE FOR YOUR LIFE.
Because HE invites us with all grace and mercy........HE is our one friend and guide. HE is just waiting for us to come to HIM, to come into HIS gentle arms and with HIS perfect loving words, HE encourages us like no one else can.
WE CAN RETURN TO JESUS AGAIN AND AGAIN.
PSALM 91:4 "HE SHALL COVER YOU WITH HIS FEATHERS, AND UNDER HIS WINGS YOU SHALL TAKE REFUGE; HIS TRUTH SHALL BE YOUR SHIELD AND BUCKLER."
And when we are broken, HE cheerleads us into knowing that really in HIS eyes we are beautiful, we are HIS elect, HIS Church and HIS children whom HE loves with a great and powerful love.
MATTHEW 5: 3 "BLESSED ARE THE POOR IN SPIRIT, FOR THEIRS IS THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN."
You think you might have no one in your corner today, but turn to the ONE who is faithful, powerful, mighty and loving. HE sees you in a way no one can and HE will never turn you away......
JOEL 2: 13 "RETURN TO THE LORD YOUR GOD, FOR HE IS GRACIOUS AND MERCIFUL, SLOW TO ANGER, AND ABOUNDING IN STEADFAST LOVE; AND HE RELENTS OVER DISASTER."
