Have you ever been going through a tough time, or couldn 't see your way out, and heard the saying, "God always has a Ram in the Bush " This is where it comes from. When you 've reached your limit and have used every resource possible to get you out of this situation, this scripture always reminds me that God is always in control. He always has a ram in the bush. God always has a way for us to escape whatever it is we 're going through. Put your trust in him and know for sure that he 's working it out!
