If I could automatically calculate just how many people have ever felt like giving up, I would be an analytical genius. But I don't believe anyone is born with that type of innate capability.

Nevertheless, "Life" has a way of showing up in all of our lives...when trouble arrives, and it feels like no way out-where so many often give up.

But in the good news of Jesus Christ, our only channel to God, and Scripture, there is always hope at times of darkness, according to Matthew 11:28: "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
