When Praises Go Up, Blessings Come Down

  We all have those dark days, days when we are down, feeling negative and maybe even like God doesn't hear us or answer our prayers, pleas and calls for help.  It's easy to just stop asking Him for help, to think we're all alone in the world.  But I just read a story about a young woman's faith in the middle of her despair.  She wrote a note to God asking for help with going to college and sent it up with three balloons.
  Her prayer was answered when another person found the balloons and helped her out.  He said when praises go up, blessings come down. And it is an important thing to remember that even when we don't get answers right away to our prayers, that we hang in there. 
  Today's reading was about Job. Poor old Job...mylanta that man had a right to complain. And he did complain, but he didn't give up believing in God.  And eventually things in his life improved.
  So when you feel like complaining it's okay to do go ahead and complain, ask for help. Just remember never give up. Don't give up on yourself, or on God or other people.  We have heaven on our side...it will be waiting for us when the time is right.
