10 Verses If You're Feeling Frustrated

Last week, I wrote a devotion on stress and listed out several verses in Scripture that offer encouragement and hope in the midst of stressful times. I received so many messages and DMs about that devotion, saying that those verses were not only encouraging, but needed as people were navigating their own stress-filled situations.

In light of that, I’ve decided that each week, one of my devotions is going to be a verse list for a specific feeling, struggle, or season. After all, we never stop needing to be reminded of the truth of God’s Word right?

On the home page of my website, I say that my goal with my writing is to help women apply God’s Word to every area of their life. And I think these verse lists are a great way for us to do that.

So today, I want to give you a list of 10 verses to help you, encourage you, and give you hope if you’re feeling frustrated. I know the start of my week has been nothing short of frustrating (having your car break down will do that), and I’m sure you’re dealing with your own set of frustrations as well. So I hope that these verses will speak to you and that as you read them, you’ll experience the peace, hope, love, and comfort that is to be found in the promises of God.
