Hope in Times of Loss
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.—Psalm 34:18 (NIV)
Are you an over-thinker? Instead of releasing your problems to God, do you agonize over solving them, convinced that if you could just figure it out, everything would work out? This exhausting exercise leaves us feeling spiritually empty. Instead, focus your energy on God.
Heavenly Father, sometimes I need help focusing on You and not my fears. Keep me obedient to You and help me trust Your will.

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.—Psalm 34:18 (NIV)

A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.—Proverbs 19:11 (NIV)

For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.—2 Timothy 1:7 (ESV)
