Look Up
Good Morning/Evening!!
“God blesses those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” Matthew 5:4
To mourn is to feel or express grief or sorrow. A period of time where there are signs of grief. And right now my family is feeling grief over the loss of a close loved one; as I know that others are going through the same within their family circle. So we share and offer comfort as God comforts us with.
Ours is a personal grief, but our country as a whole is suffering a national political sorrow for our brothers and sisters, our neighbors near and far. Our comfort is coming within the fulfillment of all that God has promised.
The Sunday School lesson subject was “We’ve Fallen And We Can’t Get Up!” Listen when we feel we’re at the lowest point and see no way out....look up and remember that even at rock bottom God’s grace and mercy is still at work. This place is a new starting point, take a forward step to chose restoration and renewal!! God got you.
