Land Of The Living

Beloved, if you can't face another day because you are in great emotional or physical pain, the Lord has a promise for you. To the one who has fallen headlong into sin, God has a word for you. For those who are resigning to a life of just getting through the day while depression saps your strength, God wants to speak to you. And for those who feel the full weight of shame, living with consequences you can't undo, God has a message of hope.
Psalms 11:17 says, "I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD." (KJV).
Be encouraged beloved, God is working in and through your life. It's not over. Don't resign to the voices of defeat and despair. Turn away from those who say, "Give up, it's over, or what's the point."
Listen, my dear brother and sister, there is no wasted life God cannot restore. There are no squandered hours but God who is outside of time, understands we are but dust, helpless and our lives are fleeting. But for this moment, He is working to conform us to His image - a work that is eternal - while our troubles will not last always. The life of Christ in you is stronger than any bands of death that try to grip your heart and mind.
Take a moment right now. Lift up your hands to Him in complete surrender. Speak this Scripture in His hearing, "For you, LORD, have delivered me from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living." (Psalms 116:8-9, NIV).
