Most of us realize we are not perfect and there are times the thought might even come to our minds that we will never improve. However, Jesus Christ said that all things are possible with God and, as we look into the Holy Scriptures, we see a number of people that, with the help of God, went from frailty to faith, becoming victorious over fear, discouragement, pride, anger and from being overwhelmed.

No matter if it is the world around us, our own life, or a combination of both, there are times when we feel everything is so dark that there is little or nothing to thank God for. The burden of the gloom we sense outweighs it all, and we are tempted to think that God does not care, or is not even there. To counter those thoughts, we need to pause and consider some things about God Himself which will bring us comfort and strength if we let them.
