Just a Minute!

Life doesn’t always work out the way we want it to. And when it doesn’t, we start to feel sorry for ourselves.

Disappointment, fear and even anger start to bubble up inside of us.

And If left unchecked, these can afflict us with the “woe is me” syndrome, and soon the pity party begins.

And that’s a dangerous place to be.

Self pity makes all those temptations of the world start looking really good.

And that’s a recipe for disaster. But you don’t have to let self-pity take you there.

Even when life isn’t working out the way you want it to, you have everything you really need in Jesus, the one who loves you and gave himself for you.

Turn your eyes to him and let his joy flood you heart.
