Are the challenges of life so overwhelming that you see no way of salvation. Maybe your finances have become severely crippled. Or you may be going through a very trying experience with your mate - you may feel that things are completely hopeless for your marriage. Maybe you have a son or daughter that has entirely left the Lord and the way they were raised and your heart is breaking. Perhaps you can relate to this weary traveler.
