Risen Hope Ministries | Good evening thought with Diane K Hiltz Chamberlain
Good evening everyone! It's so good to be with you tonight! I truly hope that you had a nice Friday! My day was a nice day...and much was accomplished. Praise God...that He always knows the way...and that He can lead us into everything that needs to be done!
As the sun slowly sets to another day...some of us may be going thru a tough time. Maybe the day didn't go as planned...or maybe someone got some bad news...or maybe you are just dealing with some specific need. One thing we can count on...no matter what time of the day it may be; is that Jesus is always there for us to run to. Tonight, may I encourage you,  to run to Jesus...the One who welcomes us with open arms...and the One who will hold us close and make us feel loved and cared for, during these difficult times.
Many years back, I had been going thru some counseling, for sexual abuse and I will never forget the time, when I returned home...only to face an empty home...and a lot of hurtful feelings. At the time, my husband was at work; so it was just me and the hurt of the past. 
Anyways...as I sat on our bed and began to cry uncontrollably...I remember looking out of the corner of my eye; to see my Bible sitting on the other side of the bed. As I reached out for it...the Bible opened to a verse in Psalm 34:18, which reads... "The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." All of a sudden, the tears stopped and it was as if I sat there in shock...looking around the room. For some reason, I knew that the presence of Jesus was there beside me. 
Now, as I look back on this time in my life...I see it as the day, when Jesus stepped in and saved my life...and from there, I started a deeper journey with Him; that has now led me to where I am today...so never give up because Jesus is truly closest to the one with a broken heart.
As we end our day together...I pray that no matter what you are facing right now; that the presence of God would enter these moments and help you to see; that even though you feel alone...you're never alone...for Jesus is there, to love and care for you...just as He was for me.
I pray that you will have a good night...take care and I will talk with you tomorrow! God bless!
It's Always & Only Because of Him...
​Diane
