“For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favor is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.” — Psalm 30:5.

I’d like to focus on the latter part of that verse. Sometimes I have struggles that are bigger than I can handle. I need God’s help to find the comfort and strength to help me recover. Whatever the reason, if you are hurting with struggles and need to be encouraged, just think back to the times in your past when you know God carried you through to a time of healing and recovery. Always know you can place your trust in Him and that He will carry you through again.

When we suffer from the pains of this life, always know through love God is working to restore joy to our lives.
