Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.
(2 Timothy 2:15 ESV)
I saw a meme yesterday that said this. “No matter how bad the world has treated you, do not stay down. In fact, look back at the world, smile and say, ‘What else you got?'”
I can truthfully say that the past few months has been challenging for me. I won’t go into detail but it’s been rough. But one thing I can truthfully say is that no matter how bad it got, Jesus never left me. He was right here cheering me on, loving on me, encouraging me. He sent some friends Thursday afternoon to encourage me. I had a very nice visit with them. And when they left, I felt so much better.
Jesus will do that for you. There have been days when nothing went right. I was so discouraged. When I went to bed, I asked Jesus to rock me in His arms and hold me tight. I had such a wonderful nights sleep. Things didn’t look so bad the next day. Jesus loves us. He will do anything we let Him do to help us. Until I finally learned that, I tried doing it all on my own. It didn’t always work out so good. There are times I can look back now and see where something worked out and I thought I had fixed it myself. But now as I look back, I see Jesus’s fingerprints all over it. When I think back over it, there was no physical way I should have been able to do it myself.
I have been so blessed. Jesus makes a way where there is no way. He goes before us clearing the pathway for us. Are you ready for Jesus to help you? Are you ready to repent and give your life to Jesus? Then say this prayer and repent. “Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. In Your Name. Amen.”
Now start living your life serving Jesus. It’s not hard. Jesus will help you through whatever the devil tries to throw at you if you just ask Him to. So don’t wait. Repent and ask Jesus into your life.
Have a wonderful day.
