Devotions; Defeating the Destroyer

Day 133

When you get upset or go through hard times don't keep all your feelings inside. Talk to someone about it. The worst thing you can do is keep all your emotions inside. It's something I struggle a lot with but when I do open up and tell people what I'm feeling then I feel better than I did before. When you talk to someone about what's going on you aren't being weak, it takes more strength to open up and be vulnerable. I know you all have at least one human who would listen to your problems and help you through them because I would and there is a good chance someone else in your life will as well. God created us to need relationships with others and that applies in your dark places as well. Trials aren't as hard when you share them with someone else. Jesus is always with you and He is always by your side. When you die you go to Heaven and everything else is just temporary so God does protect us and walk with us every day. He also works through humans and one of the major ways I've seen that in my life is when I open up and tell a friend my problems and they listen and comfort me.
