Titles are for wimps!

So I've been a little lost lately with some stuff, and you guys know what to do when that happens right?! RIGHT! You turn to your trusty ol' Bible and God will always offer something to help. So as far as being discouraged and stuff goes, well, I really like this passage from 2 Corinthians:

"All praise to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Chist. He is the source of every mercy and the God who comforts us. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When others are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. You can be sure that the more we suffer for Christ, the more God will shower us with his comfort through Christ. So when you are weighed down with troubles, it is for your benefit and salvation! For when God comforts us, it is so that we in turn, can be an encouragement to you. Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer. We are confident that as you share in suffering, you will also share God's comfort." (3-7)

Sometimes it feels like satan is getting the upper hand on you, weighing you down with a bunch of bad stuff, but just remember God will always be there for us and will take care of us, even through really bad times.

"Oh Lord dont' be far away. Storm clouds gathering beside me, Please Lord don't look the other way. I'm a crooked soul trying to stay up straight, Shine on me, Let my shadow prove the sunshine." ~Switchfoot

I'm a slacker, yes yes, I know...

Ok, so I haven't done a verse of the day in ages, and since I don't have my bible with me and I have nothing prepared but still feel the need to put something up for today..I will leave you with my FAVORITE verses:

Love is long suffering,
love is kind,
it is not jealous,
love does not boast,
it is not inflated.
It is not discourteous,
it is not selfish,
it is not irritable,
it does not enumerate the evil.
It does not rejoice over the wrong,
but rejoices in the truth
It covers all things,
it has faith for all things,
it hopes in all things,
it endures in all things.
1 Cor. 13:1-7
There ya go all you eager blog readers!
