Despair comes in many forms and most likely all of His children will at some point experience it. When we are in despair the world is dark, frightening, painful and heavy. We may feel completely alone and abandoned. But no matter the situation, our heavenly Father does not intend for us to handle it in our own strength.
When we despair we tend to look down and see no hope, and the despair becomes deeper and darker, and heavier will continue the downward spiral. We must make the choice to look up and call on the name of the Lord!
Jeremiah 33:3 Call upon Me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things you do not know!
