My Comfort

This past week has been emotionally hard and stressful.

As I mentioned in my last post, I have been having trouble with my stomach and being in severe pain.

Recently, the pain has spread to my back and cause me to feel more fatigued, nauseated, and have headaches. After going back to the doctor yesterday, I began to feel discouraged as he ordered more tests for me to do today. But encouragement came right in time from Ty. He simply sent me this verse:

"My comfort in my suffering is this:
Your promise preserves my life." Psalm 119:50


Even though I wanted to be upset and wanted to be discouraged and just wanted to feel sorry for myself, after reading this verse a few times I began to be ok and began to feel overwhelming comfort.

How true is it though? The sufferings we face are nothing compared to the amazing promise we have in our Lord. And although I cannot understand why I am in this pain and I cannot understand why I am having to go through this, I know that the promise of Christ is what preserves my life.

Again, I hope that this post gives you encouragement. Whatever struggle or trial you are going through, know that the promise of Christ preserves your life.
