《Walking With Jesus A Daily Devotional》Day Eight

Day Eight.
Verses:
"'The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.'" Psalm 23:1-6
That verse above, has to be one of my favorite Bible verses of all time. That verse has always comforted me and encouraged me. Right now, I know I am struggling.
My physically pain has been horrible the past few days and that makes me really down. Yesterday I felt so down I had thoughts of suicide. Thankfully I didn't do anything, I just cried for a while. My bipolar has been bad lately because I am having tons of mood swings. When my physically pain is horrible it can make my mood horrible. So I am struggling.
Maybe right now, you are struggling with mental illness, chronic illness, pain, depression, cancer, or just anything. I don't know what you are going but I do know that God is right beside you.
Like it said in the Psalm: "Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me."
God is with you and me.
He is right there beside us, even when we can't see Him.
He is always there to love us, comfort us, help us, guide us, forgive us, encourage us, and just be there for us.

We just have to go to Him. He is waiting for us to come home. He knew we would have struggles and trials in this world. He NEVER promised us we would have an easy life. And when we do have struggles and trials, He wants us to go to Him. He created us with the need for Him. I have never believed in the saying: "God never gives us more than we can handle." Yes he does! He gives us more than we can handle so we can go to Him and depend on Him!
God never wants us to go through life alone and without Him. He wants YOU! Even if, you are struggling. Even if, you are having suicidal thoughts. Even if, you are depressed. Even if, you are mad at Him. Even if, you haven't talked with Him in a while. No matter what, He wants YOU to go to Him.
He loves you and He believes in you❤️
Prayer:
Dear God,
I am really struggling. I feel like I am walking through the darkest valley. I can't do this alone and I need YOU. So please come grab my hand and help me through this. I just want to be close to you God. Please love me, help me, forgive me, encourage me, guide me, comfort me, and just be there for you.
I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!
