From Burdened to Blessed: Lifting Our Eyes to God

God is with us, regardless of what the enemy throws at us. Nothing can separate us from Him. The creator of the Universe deeply loves us.

When we feel defeated, and amid despair, we need to remember that the Bible gives us example after example of God delivering His people. Not only does God help His people, but He does it with ease. God is all-mighty, magnificent in all ways and our Shepherd.

Instead of allowing defeat to overtake us, we need to look up. If we can look up, then we can get up. We need to fix our eyes so steadily on God that we walk by faith—not by sight. When we walk by faith, we will find ourselves in deeper waters. God will take us to the places that we can’t go on our own.

Today, as this world’s problems burden us, we need to reach our hand out to the Lord. By faith, we need to reach for the hem of His garment and allow him to make us what He would have for us to be.

We can’t do it alone. If we could, then we wouldn’t need God. Give it all to Him—the worries, the heartache, the unbelief, and the fear. In return, He will give you His faith, strength, comfort, and peace. And we can praise Him amid the storm.

Even during the darkest of storms, the sun is still shining.
