What strategies do you use to cope with negative feelings?
When I’m feeling sad or depressed, I go to the Psalms. If it’s a period of depression that lasts longer than expected, I will read my way through the entire book because the wisdom found in them is far more restorative than any other way. Even if it is the loss of someone dear to me, I still read the Psalms because God’s wisdom always comforts me.
Psalm 143:8 KJV [8] Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; For in thee do I trust: Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; For I lift up my soul unto thee. https://bible.com/bible/1/psa.143.8.KJV
Regardless of the situation that you may find yourself in, God is with you. If you haven’t accepted Jesus as your Savior, God is near but not protecting you in every situation. Many people think they are Christians if they go to church occasionally, but that is not the truth. When the Holy Spirit calls you to become a Christian He will convict you of your need for Jesus. It is your choice to answer that call. Whether you answer it that day or not, you may not have another chance to answer it because we are not given tomorrow…only today.

What do you know of Jesus Christ? Most of us, including me, only know what we have heard or read in the New Testament and that is a beginning. But there is so much more in the Old Testament prophets that tell of His character and of the things that He will do. Most of which He fulfilled during His time on Earth at His advent. Other prophecies point to His second coming and His rule as King during the one-thousand-year reign after the Tribulation.
Jesus is the Son of God and He was present at the beginning when everything was created. Even at that point, He knew that He would have to pay for the sins of mankind but we don’t look at it that way. We don’t even consider Jesus’s existence until He is born in Bethlehem. But, He shows up as the Angel of the Lord many times during Genesis and in the pillar of fire and in Daniel with the three Hebrew men who were thrown into a fiery furnace.
God shows up as a Deliverer in many ways today in our times of need. He is always close to those who have accepted Him as their Savior but He is also near to those who are about to be called into His family. You may not know that He is about to call you but you will know when He calls.
