Max Lucado writes: "Believe in the Jesus who believes in you. He believes that you can rise up, take up, and move on. You are stronger than you think. “‘I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future’” (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV)".
"He certainly gave a bright future to the Bethesda beggar. “And immediately the man was made well” (John 5:9). Jesus did nothing but speak, and the miracle was accomplished. What will God do for you? I cannot say. God’s help, while ever present, is ever specific. It is not ours to say what God will do. Our job is to believe he will do something. It simply falls to us to stand up, take up, and walk. Remember, friends, You are never alone."
From Mike: When you are down for whatever reason, it is comforting to know that Jesus believes in you! It's encouraging to know that God has plans for you! We don't know what those plans are. We may be frustrated that we don't know and must wait on God. Be patient, trust in God and as Max says "You are never alone!"
