” THE RIGHTEOUS PERSON FACES MANY TROUBLES, BUT THE LORD COMES TO THE RESCUE EACH TIME.” PSALM 34:19
” TAKE REST ALL YOU WHO PRAY TO THE LORD. ” ISAIAH 62:6
I know that in my life I have troubles and struggles each day. Some are mental and others are physical. Some are caused by the enemy who is fighting me because of my belief in Jesus, some is caused by self-inflicted wounds and others are caused by the things going on around me. I really believe that since becoming a Christian I have endured more issues than I did when I was living a life of sin. This is understandable since the devil doesn’t want me following Jesus. Some may ask then why try so hard to follow Jesus if it only causes you problems? My answer is twofold. First, he is the way and the only way to salvation, to everlasting life and a peace of mind. He loves me and the more I meditate upon his word the more I understand that. The second reason is that the Lord has prepared me for this moment in time. He has given me all of the tools I need in order to be successful. He has provided me with the Holy Spirit who lives in me, he has provided me with a praying attitude, and he has provided many promises in his word that explain to me that he is always in control. He has a master plan, and I am a part of it. No matter the size of my role in his plan it is huge in the eyes of the Lord. He loves me and will never allow me to fail. I must, however, be totally committed to him in all areas of my life. This has not always been easy and continues to be a struggle at times, but He assures me that I will never fail with him in charge. Each and every one of us have the same Jesus in our lives. We have the same promises and the same tools. I pray that each and every one will continue to pray and believe no matter the struggles and problems you are having. With complete faith and trust in our Lord Jesus Christ we cannot and will not fail. We will always be successful. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
