Ever had somebody ask you this question? Or have you ever asked somebody that question? If so you have just opened yourself to a whole new world of getting to know somebody. In fact I have compiled a list of people that I will not ask how they are doing just to avoid a five hour story of the most depressing facts in the world. Those people can ruin your day. Not trying to be mean. I realize that everybody is going to face problems in their lives and believe me I have had my share of hard times. But not everybody needs to know or wants to know that you have bunions on your feet nor do they want to see them.
On a more serious note it is a fact that we are going to face heartache. We are going to have problems that we need help with and it is an awesome fact to know that we have friends and family that we can turn to for help. Galatians 6:2 says Bear ye one anothers burdens and so fulfil the law of Christ. There will be times when you feel you can't even pray but you can be comforted to know that somebody is praying for you. But more importantly the Holy Spirit is praying for you. Sometimes it feels like the valley you are in will never end and the sun may never shine but don't give up praying. (YouTube Mike Bowling song No Stranger to this Valley) The woman with the issue of blood for twelve years spent all she had and could have easily given up hope but she pressed on. We face a problem that might last a week and we're ready to give up. Instead let's give those problems to God. 1 Peter 5:7 says Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. Next time instead of worrying yourself sick cast it on God and let his will be done. Trust God to meet your needs.
