Life does not always go as we plan (James 4:13-17) There is a difference between concern and sinful worry (2 Cor. 11:23-33; Phil. 4:4-7) The depth of another person’s struggles do not make my struggles any less real (Phil. 4:4-7; I Peter 3:14-16)

Next to God, my brethren are my greatest source of strength, support, & refuge (Mark 10:29-30; Romans 12:10 NASB) The small acts of kindness make a huge difference (Mat 25:34-39; Jas 1:27)

Providing comfort is a skill that’s hard & takes great wisdom (2 Cor. 1:3-7; Prov. 25:11; 12:18) The birth of a child is a strong testimony to the glory of our designer (Jer. 1:5; Psalm 14:1) A feelings of devastation illuminated God’s love (Jn 3:16; 2 Cor 5:14-15)

God’s Son died so YOU can live! …and because His Son lives today you can face tomorrow!
