JUNE 29 – DESPAIR

6/29            2 Corinthians 4:8-11

8 We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. 9 We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed.10 Through suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies. 11 Yes, we live under constant danger of death because we serve Jesus, so that the life of Jesus will be evident in our dying bodies. 

DESPAIR

Life is chaotic and so often unfair.  Do not despair.  The Lord is on your side.  Be confident.  Be calm.  Nothing can separate you from the love of God.  Jesus is Lord of all.
