Take Heart
John 16:33
"In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world."
Jesus did not pretend life would be easy. In John 16:33, He told His disciples they would have trouble. Take Heart is an invitation to rest your courage on something stronger than your circumstances.
This design is for the person who needs courage without pretending. Trouble is real, but Jesus is not defeated by it.
It comes from John 16:33. Jesus was honest that trouble is real, but He also said He has overcome the world.
How to Share This Message

The Gospel
The peace Jesus gives is not earned by being strong enough. It comes from Him, the One who overcame sin and death.
We were made for relationship with God, but sin separates us from Him. Jesus came near, died for sinners, and rose again. Anyone who trusts Him can be forgiven, made new, and brought home to God.
A Prayer to Begin
God, I know I cannot save myself. I believe Jesus died for my sins and rose again. Forgive me, make me new, and help me follow You. Amen.
