Seven Don'ts

E. Stanley Jones gave this list of “Seven Don’ts” for believers to consider in the time of trouble:

1. Don’t think your case is unique. It can be matched many times over.
2. Don’t give yourself to self-pity. A self-pitying self is a pitiful self.
3. Don’t give yourself to excessive grief, thinking it shows love.
4. Don’t retell your sorrows; doing so only makes them grow.
5. Don’t resign yourself to sorrow, thinking it will continue.
6. Don’t complain; complaining only multiplies complaints as a habit.
7. Don’t forget that there is a God in heaven who has promised to deliver us.

Always Ready To Help

God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble.
-- Psalm 46:1 (NLT)

In all manner of troubles God shows His speedy mercy and power in defending His.
-- Geneva Study Bible notes

God's love never fails and His hope always prevails.
