We may feel like we are on a treadmill running with everything we have and getting nowhere. Life can become stale and boring. Sometimes we may feel as if we can’t muster enough energy to continue life’s journey.

Lent is our time to pause. The song lyrics proclaim:

I know You’re always there
To hear my every prayer inside Im clinging to
The promise of a lifetime, I hear the words You say
To never walk away from me and leave behind
The promise of a lifetime

 

 All of us feel this way at times. No one is exempt from trouble and trials. It happens to the best of people. But we have to keep going even though it may seem as if the challenges and demands of life are going to get the best of us.

Simply put, God is right there for you and He will never let you down. We let ourselves down when we place false hopes and dreams in the midst of the path God has for us.
