Life is complicated and messy. Every day we wonder if we're doing the right thing, how to handle a new challenge or setback, and how to have successful relationships with the people around us. The rush of emotions can be depressing or wonderful, scary or amazing, haunting or freeing. How do we strike a balance and not become lost in the emotional storm? Where do we go for help and guidance? Who has the wisdom to handle every situation?God understands us when we don't even understand ourselves. Our Creator and Savior understands us perfectly, and he has provided unending support, guidance, and comfort with the foresight of a loving, eternal God. Troubles, hard questions, and emotional crises will never leave us alone, but God has promised to be with us through them, and he keeps his promises. This book of devotions gathers passages that address some of those specific troubles and complicated feelings, passages that have endured the test of time. The poems tie the mood and Bible passages together, presenting the emotional struggle in another light. The third edition of this book includes points to ponder, questions to think about as the passages are read either individually or discussed in a group. With God's help, these devotions will lead to stronger faiths, improved relationships with God and the people in our lives, and ease troubled spirits. May God bless your Bible study.
