Threatened by powerful enemies and exhausted from his mission, he ran away into the wilderness to hide. He actually prayed for God to take his life.

But God did not take his life, and He didn’t leave him. He sent an angel instead, with food, and gave Elijah the strength to continue. And he says in a quiet whisper, God reminded him he was never alone.

God is with you. He knows your struggles, He knows your fears, and your heartache. Will you let Him care for you and tend to your needs, just like He did with Elijah?

You can simply pray to Him and say: “God, I feel alone. Will you please show me that You’re with me and that I’m not forgotten. Help me to hang on to You and never give up. Please forgive me, clean me out, and give me a new start. And thank You. Amen.”

Always remember, there is hope with God.

Scripture 1 Kings 19:3-6

And then all the way at the end of the Bible, in Revelation chapter 22, we’re told about a river of life that flows through Heaven.

And on each side of the river is the Tree of Life.

John 15 tells us, Jesus says, “I am the vine, my father is the gardener.”

Gardeners are unique people. My husband is a gardener. If we have a plant that isn't doing well, I want to throw it away, but not my husband; he sees potential. He’ll take it down to his office and patiently care for it, make sure it has water and light. He’ll prune it. Until eventually he’ll bring it back upstairs, a beautiful, healthy plant.

It’s just like God. He sees us, He knows that there’s life in us, and He patiently gardens.

And in the middle of the chaos, in the middle of the real danger, Jesus invited him to do something shocking—step out of the boat into the stormy sea and walk on the water!

But he walked on the water, feeling daring and alive. But when he remembered the wind and waves, it says, “fear overtook him again, and he began to sink.”

Immediately, Jesus reached out His hand, catching Peter and lifting him up. Maybe you feel overwhelmed or afraid today. God sees you, and He wants to bring you peace. Could it be that Jesus is inviting you to step out in faith today? Right now? Choose Him today, trust Him with your life.

You can pray to Him and say: “Jesus, I want to know You and trust You. Please help me to step forward in faith. I receive Your peace now. Amen.”

Always remember, there is hope with God.
