Comments:

Efigenia Vidal : Every believer only has to go to intimacy with his Creator, for me it is the best incentive, there we can unburden ourselves of the burden, leave it in his hands, tell him how I feel, and what I fear. Even communicate the displeasure or impotence, because I am flesh, and even if he controls me, the impact is always felt, "but God is faithful, he will not let the righteous fall forever." I can say with all truth that by asking Jehovah of Hosts to help me, give me wisdom, strengthen me in the midst of an affliction, it helps me to drain and have peace, in the midst of the storm. God bless you.
What beautiful words, Efigenia Vidal. It is true that going into the presence of our Creator is a balm for the soul, a place where we can deposit all our burdens and worries.
