God is my shelter - the strength that I need

"In his neck remained strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him."- Job 41:22
There is a Light that shines beyond all things on earth, beyond us all, beyond the heavens, beyond the highest, the very highest heavens.

This is the Light that shines in our hearts though Jesus Christ our Lord and Redeemer.
His grace is abundant, as is His comfort, and through his abundant grace come abundant faith and love.
Through Jesus Christ's work the grace of God super-abounds to us all.
The grace of God in Christ expands exponentially, like an exploding super nova birthing stars. Hope abounds via the indwelling Christ.
Jesus Christ does not love us enough to adequately satisfy our need to be loved.
He loves us beyond our ability to comprehend.
He loves us more than enough to fill up the infinite capacity of God, which is beyond knowledge.
He does not want to simply live His life through us -- adequate to whatever the challenges of the day might be.
Jesus Christ desires to do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we can ask or even conceive, not according to our inadequate resources, but out of His entire capacity to do the works of Father God in us.
O God, please hear me when I cry out to You, please listen as I pour out my heart. It doesn’t matter where I am - how far away from home I might be. You are the One I turn to when things just seem to be too much for me - when I’m fighting anxiety or depression, fear or anything that causes me to become discouraged.
O Lord, cause me to look to You, for You are so strong, so stable, so powerful and wise.
O Lord, You have always been the One to whom I turn for solace, for strength, for understanding - You have always been the Source of my strength in this world.
Dear God, you are my Comforter, Lord over everything, my Shelter, my Strength, my Provider. my Protector. My Counselor, my Redeemer, Prince of Peace, my Mighty God.
Thank You, dear Father, that I am seated with You - secure in You, strong in You, sheltered in Your arms and hidden beneath Your wings.
