During treatment for metastatic breast cancer, I learned to lean upon The LORD in such a way that I will never forget. I would recite four scriptures to get me through some of the toughest times. I called these scriptures my "trifecta plus one":
1. God inhabits the praises of His people.
“But thou art holy, O thou that inhabits the praises of Israel.”
Psalm 22:3
2. In His presence is fulness of joy.
Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Psalm 16:11
3. The joy of the LORD is my strength
.. "Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our LORD. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength." Nehemiah 8:10
4. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me. Phil. 4:13
~Blessings & Love~
and remember, we are...
~NEVER FORSAKEN~

Thank you so much! The Bibleverses are so powerful. Can you tell me something about the second one. How to find fulness in joy in hard times?
Lots of love: Aritha
I don't know if this post will help to explain what I have learned through my own experience with some tough challenges.

Sometimes we need a friend who is far away in order to help with some situations.

THANKS!
Hi Lisa,
there is always a power in prayer and praise. One verse I constantly say to the Lord is 'I will love Thee O Lord my strength' - which He is.
God bless you Lisa with all that God has to give us, and continue to trust in the Lord with all of your heart.
