Sadness, unfortunately, is a part of life that everyone will experience. It is a grief process that has stages until you get whole again. God understands that sadness will come upon us, humans. It is apart of our DNA. It is ok to be sad but God does not want us to stay there long. It is ok to have your pity party, you are human but get up again. Though you can’t see, feel or hear him, He is still there with you throughout. He sees the anguish and tears. He hears the scream and whimpers. He is waiting for you to finish so he can fill you up with His word.  For your sadness, he will put a new song in your heart. Believe me, he hears our wants and needs. His timing is far more important than ours. No matter what is going on, He will never ever leave you. Though it feels like at times, He is far away and doesn’t hear, He is preparing you for one of the greatest victories in your life.

Psalm 34:18 – The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit.

Psalm 147:3 – He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.

Romans 8:38-39 –  For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Prayer – Father, please take the sadness from me and heal me. I ask for your joy and strength to make through this situation. Help me to see the goodness in my issue. Help my attitude and my mind in Jesus name, Amen.
