You don’t have to sink in defeat or let yourself drown in misery. Hopelessness is tempting but know this: it is not your friend just because it’s always been there. It lures you in only to choke you with sorrow, and usher you into the arms of regret. And regret only goes in circles, no set destination other than sadness.
Sometimes I think of how easy it is to sink, but what will that make of us? We are the children of the Mighty King.
You can push through. I know you can. Not because I believe in you, but because I believe in the One whose power is greater than anything and everything and whose strength is unbreakable and whose hand is not short to rescue you from the pit you have let yourself slide into. This God lives in you.
You can do this. Believe it. Walk in the strength of your Father, and know that in the midst of the chaos, He will never ever let you go.
When you are weak, then you are strong.
