Who are you waiting for?
Lord, have mercy on us;
for we put our hope in you!
Be our strength every morning,
our salvation in times of trouble.
- Isaiah 33:2
When we go through difficult and distressing times, we long for someone to reach out a hand and lighten our burden. But in reality, no human being can relieve all anguish or satisfy all the desires of another person. All human beings are imperfect, we have weaknesses and we fail.
God is the only one who can truly understand us and reach the depths of our hearts. Only He can bring peace in the midst of life’s storms and fulfill our deepest desires. You can trust Him completely to help you endure and persevere through distress. He can bring peace to your heart and heal the wounds caused by disappointment and pain.
Whom have I in heaven but you?
And earth has nothing I desire besides you.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever.
- Psalm 73:25–26
When you feel like you’re fainting and can’t take it anymore, God can give you new strength and encouragement. Tell Him how you feel and open your heart to receive His comfort and renewal.
He heals the brokenhearted
and binds up their wounds.
- Psalm 147:3
Today, bring your anxieties, desires, and worries to the Lord and wait on Him. He will come to your aid, heal you, and strengthen you!

Word of the Day: God wants to fill your heart with peace
To have peace at home, at work, at school, and especially in the heart, is something priceless. When we fully surrender our lives to the Lord, we know that He is in control, and that fills our hearts with peace, even when things get tough!
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:7
Many situations try to rob us of our peace each and every day. We can surrender to anxiety and suffer the consequences, or we can resist by filling our hearts with the peace of God. We can always turn to God for encouragement, strength, and peace. He generously gives to those who ask, and His provision never runs out.
Do not let the worries of life control your being and your feelings. Take your burdens and difficulties to God, lean on Him, stand firm in His promises, and receive the wonderful peace that only He can give you.
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7
