First I want to give honor to God who is the Lord of my life, the master and keeper of all, the one and only hope, the perfect and true.
The longer I live the more respect I have for God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Not too long ago I turned 50 years old and that made me look back over my life. I’ve had some hard times along the way but I noticed how God kept me. Even when I was out of His will He protected and cared for me. Not saying that he over looked my disobedience because I did receive punishment for a lot of the things I did. Now I really realize I have a true calling on my life. Romans 8:28 says, “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to His purpose.” Now I see why alcoholism didn’t hold me and cancer didn’t kill me because God knew I was going to answer the call on my life. I’m not writing this to talk about me but using it as an example. The alcoholism and cancer isn’t good but they worked together for my good. They gave me a great appreciation for God because He delivered me from both and gave me focus, which gave me peace and contentment. But sometimes I have to admit I still lose my focus.
Many of us have a list of things that’s going wrong in our lives and we complain daily about them. I really don’t know why its easier to talk about things that’s going wrong and depress ourselves instead of talking about the things that’s going right. Maybe its because the things that do go right are considered not important and we take them for granted. For example if these articles that I write are full of gossip everybody and their cousin couldn’t wait to get their hands on them. But since they are focused on living right and giving yourself over to God, its not that many readers. I want to ask you; Are you happy? My guess is that only a few can say yes. Let me ask you another question; Are you content or comfortable with your life? If you said no to being happy or content you need help. Your problem is your main focus is wrong. To correct this, move your focus to Jesus. Through Jesus you can talk to God. God wants to have a relationship with you and see you happy. In John 14:6 Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me.” If you haven’t already accepted Jesus as your Savior, by surrendering your life to him, do it now. When you do you have access to God. In the Living Bible 2Corinthians 5:21 says, “God took the sinless Christ and poured into Him our sins. Then in exchange, He poured God’s goodness into us.” Wow!!! If that’s not enough to make you happy something’s wrong. If you keep your focus on Jesus you will have a more peaceful and content life.
If you are not saved you don’t have access to God’s promises. If you want Jesus to come into your life so you can, please pray this prayer right now: Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I come unto You just as I am. I am a sinner Lord. I have sinned against You and against heaven. I ask You, Lord Jesus, to forgive me and come into my heart and save my soul. Let me be born again by the Spirit of the living God. I give my life to You, Lord Jesus. I do believe that You are the Son of God. I believe that You are Jesus Christ who was sent to save my soul. I give You thanks, praise and honor for redeeming me by Your precious blood.
Now start reading your Bible asking God for understanding and start attending church regularly and let the Holy Spirit lead you. God Bless
