Life is not a straight line journey, it’s full off ups and downs.
It’s full of anxiety, discouragement, fear, panic, nervousness, unease, despair, depression, disappointment, dismay and the list goes on.

The antidote to these is find in God, for He said in Isaiah 43:1-2 But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
