The Power of Good Judgment
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.—James 1:5 (ESV)
And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.—Acts 16:25 (KJV)
In the above verse, Paul and Silas sang their prayers and God set them free. When you feel let down and discouraged, lift your spirits by singing praises to God. It may sound counter-intuitive or seem difficult to sing when you are sad, but try it. Feel your spirit lift.
Lord, thank You for the joy I feel when I sing your praises— the joy that sets me free and takes me above my own pain and discouragement.
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.—James 1:5 (ESV)
But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.—Romans 8:25 (NIV)
“I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.”—John 14:27 (NLT)
