"You say, God says" (encouragement for difficult times)
I hope it's OK to post this here. I have this printed out and posted where I can see it often. It's a good reminder of God's promises. I wanted to share it with all of you who could use some encouragement.
Code:
YOU SAY GOD SAYS

“It’s impossible” ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE
Jesus replied, "What is impossible with
men is possible with God." (Luke 18:27 NIV)
“I’m too tired” I WILL GIVE YOU REST
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened,
and I will give you rest. (29) Take my yoke upon
you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in
heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
(30) For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
(Matthew 11:28-30 NIV)
“Nobody really loves me” I LOVE YOU
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and
only Son,[6] that whoever believes in him shall not
perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16 NIV)
“I can’t go on” MY GRACE IS SUFFICIENT
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you,
for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore
I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses,
so that Christ's power may rest on me.
(2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV)
“I can’t figure things out” I WILL DIRECT YOUR STEPS
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not
on your own understanding; (6) in all your ways
acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
(Proverbs 3:5-6 NIV)
“I can’t do it” YOU CAN DO ALL THINGS
I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
(Philippians 4:13 NIV)
“I’m not able” I AM ABLE
And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so
that in all things at all times, having all that you
need, you will abound in every good work.
(2 Corinthians 9:8 NIV)
“It’s not worth it” IT WILL BE WORTH IT
And we know that in all things God works for the good
of those who love him, who have been called according
to his purpose. (Romans 8:28 NIV)
“I can’t forgive myself” I FORGIVE YOU
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and
will forgive us our sins and purify us from all
unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9 NIV)
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those
who are in Christ Jesus, (Romans 8:1 NIV)
“I can’t manage” I WILL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEEDS
And my God will meet all your needs according to his
glorious riches in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19 NIV)
“I’m afraid” I HAVE NOT GIVEN YOU A SPIRIT OF FEAR
For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity,
but of power, love, and self-discipline.

“I’m always worried CAST ALL YOUR CARES ON ME
and frustrated” Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares
about what happens to you. (1 Peter 5:7 NLT)
“I don’t have enough faith” I’VE GIVEN EVERYONE A MEASURE OF FAITH
For by the grace given me I say to every one of you:
Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought,
but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in
accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.
(Romans 12:3 NIV)
“I’m not smart enough” I GIVE YOU WISDOM
It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who
has become for us wisdom from God--that is, our
righteousness, holiness and redemption.

“I feel all alone” I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU
Keep your lives free from the love of money, and be
content with what you have; for he has said, "I will
never leave you or forsake you." (Hebrews 13:5 NRSV)
Thank you for posting that. I'm going to send it to everyone I know. God bless.
