We often don’t like to admit when we’re struggling. It’s tempting to push our worries away and focus on what’s going well. And while there’s nothing wrong with enjoying a healthy sense of gratitude, the Bible also says we have a friend in Jesus, and you can always take your worries and problems to Him. He is the ultimate comforter in times of stress or anxiety, and He is more than capable of bearing the burdens you cannot carry alone. Most importantly, He always offers His presence.
Throughout the Bible, we see the Israelites instructed to lift up their hands in worship and allow God to work on their behalf. So, grab your Bible and get ready to worship the King — because He has your back and He’ll never let you down…no matter the challenge you’re facing today.
