Often circumstances in life bog us down. We get discouraged and disheartened. The 'whys' and 'why only me' pop up with alarming alacrity.
No body shares your sorrow.
'Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone.' How true it is!
That's when you hear this voice speaking, if you're careful to listen.
'Trust in Me.'
He tells us to hand over our burdens over to Him, take His yoke which is light and easy to bear. Instead of our grief, now we find great peace, if we would only trust.
Our happiness depends usually on happenings.. but the joy He gives is irrespective of things around us.
Happiness comes when things happen our way, when our desires are fulfilled. But joy flows even when the sea roars, waves come lashing, skies darken.
We may be going through a valley of death's shadow..but still be joyous. That inner brook bubbling continually.
Because He's now in control.
