September 27, 2019 | Happy Friday!

Hello everyone...and a very "Happy Friday" to you! Praise God...He has brought us through another week! You know...we can have moments in the week, when we feel as if we won't make it...but then we reach the end of the week...and that is when we truly realize that God did sustain us and bring us through...what we saw at one time, as something impossible to get through...PRAISE GOD!!
Yesterday...as I was searching God's word, for a verse or two...to inspire us today; God led me to this verse in Psalm 40:2, which is truly the story of my life...as I remember a time, when I felt as if I had fallen deep into a pit of despair, with no way out.
I will never forget what God has done for me, as long as I live. In fact...I feel as if these moments have truly been embedded deep within my heart; where they will always be a reminder to me, as to how far God has brought me...for there was a time, when I was so low in spirit; that these moments had actually placed me into a very deep pit of despair. As I sat all alone within this pit of despair; I remember trying many...many times to get out on my own. It seemed like every time that I tried to climb out...I just fell back, to where I first began. 
Over time...this pit made me feel, as if this would be the place where I would die...for I could not even see one glimpse of hope shining down upon me...only the darkness that surrounded me at that time. 
Out of desperation...I began to cry out for help...never knowing if anyone would even take the time to care about me and what I was facing at the time. Not once, did anyone come to my aide...no family or friend; but there was One who did come...and when He approached the place, in which I had been, for quite some time; He reached deep within the pit and lifted me out of those deep moments of despair...and that "One," was Jesus Christ...praise Him! You ask me how I knew it was Him? I knew without a doubt it was Him, by the nail scar print upon the hand that reached down to save me...and ever since; He continues to sustain me and keep me close to Him. I have truly come to see in my life; that there is no other love like His...for He never judged me or kept Himself distant from me; but rather, His love was what actually drew me out of that pit...and there will never be enough praise, for all He's done for me!!
Today...do you feel as if you have fallen too, into a pit of despair...one that seems impossible to get out of? May I encourage you...to call out to the One, who will truly hear your cries for help...and save you, from the moments that seem impossible to overcome.
As we continue to walk through this day...I pray that God would truly reveal His presence...to all who feel buried beneath the weight of a circumstance; that you too, will come to see the love that He truly has for you! Have a great Friday...and may God be ever near...no matter what you may be facing at this time! See ya later this evening!
Many...many blessings on your day!
It's Always & Only Because of Him...
