Yes, the Psalms always remind us of how walking through the depths of despair bring us into the presence of our Lord who will save us and lift us up from our trials and troubles.<br />I'm sorry to hear about your back troubles, but praying that God will lessen that for you!

"Wee...This is the verse that came to my mind:<br /><br />"Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning." (Psalm 30:5, NLT)<br /><br />Sometimes it seems to me that we don't really appreciate the light until we have to walk to it through the darkness. Valleys and deserts and wilderness seasons have a way of making the light so much more glorious. I have had back problems before, and it can be crippling - both literally and emotionally. But yes, God brings us comfort when we most need it, doesn't He?<br /><br />GOD BLESS!
