John 16:33<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace.  In the world you will have tribulation.  But take heart; I have overcome the world.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you struggle to overcome in your life? The difficulties of this life are many. Though the problems may change with the stages of our lives, there is always something to worry about. At some point in our lives, we are all faced with times of illness, sadness, or despair. We live in a fallen world and so it is inevitable that we will face difficulties during our time here on earth. Yet through Jesus there is always hope. Jesus offers us words of encouragement and an inner peace that is like nothing the world can provide. This peace comes freely to us when we humble ourselves before the Lord and offer ourselves up in prayer. During these moments, God draws near to us and whispers in our hearts the words we need to hear: \u201cI am your God and you are my precious child. I will always be with you anytime you call my name. Have hope and trust that I have overcome the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nOvercoming<\/strong>\nBy Krista Longeway\n\nThough the world can bring you worries and fears,\nCast aside these worries and dry your tears.\nJesus gives us words of encouragement,\nAnd an inner peace that is heaven sent;\nA peace like nothing the world can provide.\nKnowing the God of love is by your side,\nHold your hands up high in a heart-felt prayer.\nTrust God\u2019s ways and know that He\u2019s always there.\nSo it is time for you to make the choice\nTo listen for God\u2019s still and quiet voice.\nIt\u2019s whispering in your heart, telling you\nThese gentle words that are loving and true:\n\u201cTrust that I am your God and you are mine\nAnd I will be by your side every time\nThat you humble yourself and call my name.\nYou will find it will always be the same\nFor I have overcome the world and I\nWill always rule over the earth and sky.\u201d\n<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
