Life is good. It depends on how you look at it. Trials and difficulties are inevitable in life. However, your outlook depends very much on how you handle it.
All of us face difficulties. Problems do not melt us, it molds and shapes us. Overcoming obstacles in life require inner strength and wisdom. When all go wrong, who or where do we look up to?
Family is where the essence of life begins. However, we usually look to our peers or spouse for solutions to life’s problems. Talking out our pains brings relief. It helps to ease the pain. It is a source of encouragement when the other person shows concern and care and gives advice that helps.
How then do we look to life when all else might fail us? Where do you take comfort from? Sometimes our struggles are unforeseeable. Financial problem may creeps at us, or we fear the future ahead because of high-rise price in the economy. Transport cost may be more costly due to the raise of oil prices, and food items like bread, corn, and others have increased due to famine and drought in the producing countries. The world is not getting any better, as natural disasters like earthquakes are erupting all over the world, in many parts of the regions.
With such uncertainties, will our life be the same as before? Anxiety may hit us and we’re probably more fear-prone than ever. What does the future hold for us, and will life be ever the same again?
We live in an uncertain world and when sicknesses or diseases hit us, are we able to withstand the pressure of life? Our only hope is in God. Only God can protect us from such a sinful world, as we are marked by the sinfulness of men. Sin is the cause of all these problems that we face in life. However, Jesus has come to this world to eradicate sin. He died a cruel death on the cross in order that your sin and my sin are forgiven. When we believe in Him, we shall be saved.
The uncertainty of life is only temporary, as we have a better home call heaven when we leave this world. As our sins have been forgiven by Jesus when we accept Him, we can then enter into paradise with Him. But first, acknowledge that you are a sinner and reach out to touch Jesus and ask Him to take away all your sins. It’s good to live a sin-free life, as Jesus is able to help us with our weaknesses when we surrender our lives to Him. All you have to do is just to open yourself up to Him and allow Him to take you just where you are at right now. Invite Jesus into your life and you’ll never be the same again.
I hope you’ll find joy in Jesus. He is your only hope. Apart from Him, life is uncertain and full of problems and heartaches. Jesus understands how you feel. You may go through a difficult trial right now, but know that God cares for you and He will meet your very needs. Open up your heart to Jesus and invite Him to come into your life right now. He will meet your needs and give you abundant life. This abundant life is in Him if only you will reach out to Him and receive it. Search no longer, Jesus is your very need.
Have problems affected you from where you were in the past? Have the sorrows of life led you deeper and deeper into depression, anguish and pain? God knows your heart and He wants to meet you just where you are at. Look to Him and you will look no more for answers in life because your answers are in Him.
Look up and let the Almighty direct and guide your life and you will never be the same again.
