Both Kinds of Days

Thank you for subscribing-may these words bring a quiet moment of peace and reflection to your day.

Backstory:
This writing was inspired by a talk by Emily Belle Freeman called Best Days and Worst Days. It made me reflect on how life is filled with both bright seasons and difficult ones. Living with chronic illness has taught me deeply what those “worst days” can feel like—days of fatigue, discouragement, unanswered questions, and wondering how to keep going. But it has also taught me to recognize the “best days” more clearly—days when strength returns, gratitude rises, and hope shines again. Through it all, I have come to know that Jesus Christ is the constant source of light in every kind of day.

Both Kinds of Days

We all have trials in this life
That can cause us unending strife.
Those like me with chronic illness
Know the sense of loneliness in the stillness.

On days when the fatigue is so bad,
That you have no choice but to feel sad.
Know that you are never alone in this journey,
Jesus will be there with you so you don’t need to worry.

If you are discouraged and the clouds are heavy over you,
Just remember that the sun always comes out to make all things new.
On your worst days, when your body is in so much pain,
Don’t give up because the rainbow comes after the rain.

Best days are possible because of your Savior, Jesus Christ
Who suffered everything and paid the ultimate price.
On your worst days when you don’t know if you can keep going,
Know that because of Him, there is hope always growing.

Jesus is there for you on your worst day
And with you, He will always stay.
When discouragement feels heavy in your heart,
Just reach out to your Savior, and from you, He will never depart.

The Takeaway: Our days may change between joy and struggle, but the Savior does not. Even on our darkest days, His light is still there—sometimes hidden behind clouds, but never gone. Because of Him, hope always rises again.
