WHEN MANY THINGS SEEM to be going wrong, trust GOD. – PSALM 13 : 5, EPHESIANS 5 : 20

“WHEN MANY THINGS SEEM to be going wrong, trust GOD. When your life feels increasingly out of control, thank GOD. These are supernatural responses, and they can lift you above your circumstances. If you do what comes naturally in the face of difficulties, you may fall prey to negativism. Even a few complaints can set you on a path that is a downward spiral, by darkening your perspective and mind-set. With this attitude controlling you, complaints flow more and more readily from your mouth. Each one moves you steadily down the slippery spiral. The lower you go, the faster you slide; but it is still possible to apply brakes. Cry out to The LORD in HIS Name! Affirm your trust in GOD, regardless of how you feel. Thank The LORD for everything, though this seems unnatural—even irrational. Gradually you will begin to ascend, recovering your lost ground. When you are back on level ground , you can face your circumstances from a humble perspective. If you choose supernatural responses this time — trusting and thanking GOD — you will experience HIS unfathomable Peace.”
