“Open up before God, keep nothing back; he’ll do whatever needs to be done.” Psalm 37:5-6
Each and every one of us have problems in our lives that seem to be so large and overwhelming that there is nothing that will allow us to live lives of strength and happiness. Our God did not put us on this earth to shy away from the things in this life that can give us joy and pleasure. He did not put us here to constantly struggle, to fear, and to doubt. He put us here to worship him and to believe in him, and to trust him, in his every move. He put us here to live lives of love, peace and understanding and to be witnesses to his Holy Word. There is nothing we cannot do if we just succumb to our God in heaven. There are things that have happened in my life that I would never be able to discuss with others in this world. However, I have a creator in heaven who promises me that if I come to him, ask him, believe him, and trust in him, I will receive what I ask for in his will. He gives us forgiveness for our sins, but we must ask and repent. He gives us protection in every situation, but we must ask. He gives us our seed of faith and allows us to grow it, if we ask. God tells us in the above scripture that we are not to hold back anything from God. We are to open up to him and believe! Our Lord God will do whatever needs to be done! We must remember, however, that he is God and that we are not. He has his own timetable and will use it and not ours. We must remember that the evil of this world will not leave us alone and will constantly be jabbing at us, trying to always keep us from our Lord. We will sometimes struggle more than other times, but we must always remember that peace of mind and strength of character are just a prayer away! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
