Where to Go First When you are in need, where do you run? To whom do you turn? Turn to Me first. You cause yourself so much unnecessary frustration when you depend on yourself and others instead of Me alone. No one but Me can see your situation from beginning to end. You need My perspective to obtain the help that you need. I can do the impossible, no one else can, so why wouldn't you come to Me before going to anyone else? When you come to Me first, it shows that you absolutely trust Me. It draws you nearer to Me and your faith grows stronger. Everything I do in your life is to develop your faith, and coming to Me first when you face trouble will enable you to walk on a firm foundation. Come to Me with your needs, knowing that I can do the impossible, assured that I can and will help you. Don't doubt My power to perform whatever miracles you need in your life. Whatever challenges you face, I AM able to overcome them all. Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. 2 CORINTHIANS 1:3-4 (NIV)
