Jesus will appear and lift you above the shadows- Immerse yourself in the Bible until the day dawns.  You can’t read without praying- You’ve got to grow out of the valley- When God speaks, nothing can stop His word- God is sovereign; He does what he wants to do and it is righteous- I’m in the hole but He is down here with me- When I’m down, I’m not staying down- Your biggest enemy can be how you feel
