Desperate Yet Not In Despair

We have all experienced moments when it seemed as though we have no strength to move forward. The battle raging within us and around us seems overwhelming and ongoing without an end in sight; we are unable to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Our eyes fail from searching out God’s word. It’s like when we look into the Scriptures for comfort, but it seems more like empty words on a page. What we seek is to be released from our agony. In desperation, we may have asked God, When will you comfort me? When will you come to my aid?
