Something written by Max Lucado and taken from one of his newer books "You'll Get Through This":


Lean on God

"Whatever it is that's troubling you, you'll get through this! Cancel your escape to the Himalayas. Forget the deserted island. This is no time to be a hermit. Pray. Lean on God's people. Be a barnacle on the boat of God's church. Matthew 18:20 says, 'For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.'

"So, don't quit and don't hide! Would the sick avoid the hospital? The hungry avoid the food pantry? Would the discouraged abandon God's Hope Distribution Center? Only at great risk. God is waiting on you, my friend. He is with you. Your family may have left. Your supporters may be gone. Your counselor may be silent But God is waiting on you, my friend. His promise in Genesis 28:15 still stands, 'I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go!' And you will get through this!"
