Hopeless

We receive thousands of prayer requests here at the Crystal Cathedral Ministries and 50% of the prayer requests are for finances (the other 50% are for health concerns). I am not a financial wizard, but I can reassure you that God’s word promises that he will provide for all our needs. God only wants the best for all his children. Today may be difficult, but if you can hang in there, God promises that tomorrow will get better. My father taught us, “God will have the last word and it will be good.”
In the meantime, thank God for the blessings you have. It is impossible to stay down when you count your blessings. Thank God for the wonderful lessons you will learn through these difficult times. Thank God for the doors he is closing and will open to guide you to the best plan possible for your life. Hope is always reborn when we take time to count our blessings and praise our Heavenly Father for his perfect plan for our lives.
