“David
said, ‘You are the lifter of my head.’’
Psalm 3:3
Over 300 cards with words of encouragement have come to us
during the past 2 years of my husbands’ illness!
So often in life, just like David, I get tired of the day to
day trials. I need to be encouraged! God has an encouraging heart and He reminds
me how much He loves me. He gives me the strength to get through each moment
when I ask for His help.
His encouragement comes in many forms. It may be in a quiet
whisper to my heart or it may arrive in the words of those cards sent by others
who have responded to His gentle urging.
He encourages me by reminding me that I am not alone. I only
need to listen for His words of hope and eternal encouragement.
Like David, I must know where to turn when I am discouraged!
God will provide a ray of encouragement on the cloudy days and He will lift my
head and fill my heart with hope in the most difficult of circumstances.
