When You’ve Been Knocked Off Your Feet
I recently talked to someone who was knocked off their feet by life.
The hurt is huge, the pain builds daily. Yet they run. They run from the One who could ease the pain and bring peace into a troubled heart.

James 4:7-10 So let God work his will in you. Yell a loud no to the Devil and watch him scamper. Say a quiet yes to God and he’ll be there in no time. Quit dabbling in sin. Purify your inner life. Quit playing the field. Hit bottom, and cry your eyes out. The fun and games are over. Get serious, really serious. Get down on your knees before the Master; it’s the only way you’ll get on your feet. MSG
It’s the only way you’ll get on your feet.
Much love, Sue
