How are we to respond to difficult times? By concentrating on the bigger picture. Here are two links that will encourage us to think heavenly thoughts. The first is a 24 minute chat between Joni Eareckson Tada and Nancy Guthrie, where at times they break out in song. The second is a list of hymns to sing when we are overcome by fear and anxiety. I hope these are helpful. 💜

What an amazing video, anyone who has not watched this needs to. The sweet fellowship seen here between these two women who know suffering first hand and live each day to praise God despite of the suffering is so inspirational.
ReplyDeleteWe can all learn from these two sisters in Christ who have the authority to tell us to keep smiling in the face of terrible pain and heartache because they are not without experience.
I encourage everyone to watch this and be reminded that when we speak of our Lord and Savior it should cause us to suddenly break out in songs of praise because our hearts have just been so filled with the love and mercy of our Lord as we speak His word to each other in encouragement.
God is good all the time we must believe that to lift us up each day! Thanks Candy, keep sending us the good word, and everyone should pass this video on to at least one person who they love. Debbi
Thanks so much for your comment! Yes, I agree that once suffering people speak of their difficult situations, we should all take notice and flee to the one who has sustained them as well. ❤️
