Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Matthew 11:28 (ESV)

 

You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; you have loosed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness

Psalm 30:11 (ESV)

Mourning into Dancing

In life, there will always be that person who wants to compete with us. Someone who is jealous of something we are not even aware of; someone who has hatred towards us for no reason. Sometimes, this person plans to hinder our breakthroughs; they might even put us in a difficult situation. But God sees everything. When we think that He does not notice our pain, He is actually building our character. When we think that He won't help us, He is actually cheering for us, as we for the solutions that He is showing us.

Prayer

Father, thank You for inviting us to run to You with our burdens. Thank you for being our cheerleader as we go through difficult times. We trust that as we lay ourselves to sleep each night, our strength and joy are renewed every morning because of Your unfailing love. You are a God who turns our mourning into dancing! We invite You to stay in our hearts and lives as we see Your plans unfold. We love you! In Jesus' Name, Amen!
