In times of trouble, may the LORD answer your cry… Psalm 20:1 (NLT)

Then call on me when you are in trouble… Psalm 50:15 (NLT)

I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble… Psalm 86:7 (NLT)

“LORD, help!” they cried in their trouble… Psalm 107:19-21 (NLT)

“You will not know that God is all you need until God is all you have”

We are pressed on every side by troubles,

but we are not crushed.

We are perplexed, but not driven to despair.

We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God.

We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed.

2 Corinthians 4:8-9 (NLT)
