REVERSING THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL

Life is replete with letdowns. Some are truly consequential but most are petty. The problem is the small ones often stick together, mushrooming into something truly ominous. If not diminished, discouragement will set in with full-on depression soon to follow. Learning to cast our disappointments into the sea of God’s love is vital to spiritual advance. Each new day offers fresh opportunities to cast our cares upon the One who truly cares for us. Father, may Your unfailing love be my delivering comfort. Fill my heart with Your joy and teach me to console others with the same care I have received.
