‘If you’re facing what seems to be an overwhelming situation in your life this week, I want to encourage you to stand firm. Don’t let this thing fill up your whole horizon. Don’t let your anxieties swallow you up or drain your faith dry. Rather, stand firm and take action. Take it as an opportunity to do a little research of your own into God’s Word. Compare Bible verses with each other; investigate the examples of Paul or Joseph or Daniel or Peter and how they dealt with bad news and suffering in their lives.

‘What a waste of an illness or injury if we read—or go on talking—day and night about that illness, that injury, and not about the God who allowed it for His own sovereign reasons.’

-Joni Erickson Tada, A Place of Healing, p. 142
