Problems...

Have you ever felt like you just want to cry?

Hey GEM girls! Well, I was feeling that way the other day when there were so many things I had to do that it felt like I was trying to climb an impossible mountain! I just wanted to give up.

Then, a wise friend reminded me that giving up wouldn’t help. She told me that even if I “gave up” today, all those things would still be there tomorrow. Then, she said something important, “The best thing to do is to give all your problems to Jesus and take things one step at a time.”

Well, that’s great, but how do we do that?

One way to give our problems to Jesus is to tell Him about them. He understands what we are going through. Then, we can praise Him for all the good things He has done for us! We can “put our hope in God” by trusting Him, even when it’s hard. He will give us strength to start taking things one step at a time.

A little bit of truth from the Bible can make a big difference. Search the Bible and the Holy Spirit will guide you to promises to give you comfort, joy, and strength.

Have you been through a rough time? How did you deal with it? Let me know in the comments!
