You’ve heard it before. I know, I know, it’s extremely cliché. But life is hard. Sometimes, its really hard. When it gets hard, what do we do? To be completely honest, I haven’t quite figured that part out. But what I have figured out is that when things feel overwhelming, the one place to turn where peace is always guaranteed is.

It’s Praise Thursday here on The Afternoon Drive, and if life has you down lately, you definitely aren’t alone. I’ve found it draining just getting through the week. But thankfully, we have a source that is the ultimate provider of joy:

“Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.” Nehemiah 8:10 (NIV)

When you feel overwhelmed with worry, anxiety or just exhaustion, remember that the source of true strength is not found in yourself, but in the Lord.

We also had some fun sharing weird, but very true facts, including Neil Armstrong selling his hair for $3,000. Wish I could sell mine for that much…

Today’s track was “Never Get Used To This” by Forrest Frank and JVKE. Congrats to Terry from Mount Vernon for naming the right tune. Since last week’s was a stumper, he wins TWO $5 Watts Restaurant Gift Cards!

Thanks for listening!- Judah
