Daily Devotionals by Ardith Keef

     The Lord understands emotional turmoil.
     After all, He is the One who had drops of blood from distress.
     Remember, He has tasted every human distress.  He has tasted death, illness, He 
has been forsaken and spoken against, and He has gone through every other form 
of discomfort that time has extended to mankind.
     He knows what you are going through.
     Is your home uncomfortable?  He understands.
     Are you misunderstood?  He understands.
     Is there pain that will not go away?  He understands.
     Don't you see?  He understands.
     Understanding means knowing from the inside.  And we have a Lord who has
tasted every possible human distress.
     What does this mean? He has also made a "way of escape"  and by faith, every
child of the Living God has access to the One who understands.
     Take it to Him.  Tell Him outloud.
     He will not take it casual and He will listen attentively. 
     He died for you.  He cares about each second of your life.
