Have you ever had one of those days when the pressure is so high you want to just runaway? I know exactly how your feeling because on more than one occasion I have experienced the same level of pressure from all sides. That's when I just take a deep breath and pray a little prayer to Jesus who is always standing by. He's just waiting to hear from us for his comfort in all situations; but we have to speak his name to engage him in our day-to-day lives. I know he said he would never leave us or forsake us - but he also said "If my people will only humble themselves and call upon my name, then will they hear from heaven and I will heal their land". We can't take Him for granted in other words. Sure, He can rescue or protect you during eminent danger - but he wants to walk you through the small trials too! That's the relationship aspect He wants to develop between you and Him. He wants to be your best friend. Remember how friendship are built? You've got to get acquainted with one another. That involves deep communication and that doesn't happen overnight. You have to keep in touch daily.
