for You are with me…

12 Best Psalms When You’re Having a Bad Day
Having a bad day? If so, it is okay. You are human so make sure to take it easy on yourself. The trick to “bad days” is not to try and avoid them (it won’t end well). Rather, to take in encouraging words to lift your spirit. Unfortunately, finding encouraging messages in mainstream media or via social media today is next to impossible. So when a soul needs to be filled with truthful and lasting encouragement where does it turn? There is only one place that will never fail and promises to transform. The Word of God.
If it has been awhile since you have opened a Bible, this is your reminder. This is your remedy to not only fix those bad days but to have a great life overall. Planted within the pages of the Holy Bible are inspiring, hope-filled, God-breathed words that will change any negative mood you are in. Miraculous Words that lift the Spirit, free the soul, and change bad days into blessed ones.
Take a moment to prayerfully read over these 12 Best Psalms When You’re Having a Bad Day. Pay attention to those verses that speak to your heart and spend extra time meditating on them. Like the psalmists we, too, can lean on God through His Word and trust that He will take care us.
