Today I want to share some important things with you. Many times in life we suffer from disappointment or depression. But at that time we must remember that God is always by our side.
You know, I have also been disappointed many times in life. But whenever I open the Bible, I get new strength. God’s word lights up our lives.
Imagine, you are in a dark room. Suddenly someone lights a candle. In that light, you can see everything again. Similarly, when we read the Bible, the darkness in our mind disappears.
God loves us. He wants us to be happy. But sometimes we forget that He is with us. Then it seems like everything is dark. But is it really so? No, God is always by our side.
Have you ever noticed that when we talk to someone, our mind becomes lighter? Similarly, when we pray, we talk to God. This calms our mind.
There are many beautiful words in the Bible that encourage us. For example, in the Psalms, it is written, “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.” When you read these words, don’t you think that God is watching over us all the time?
I know that sometimes life is difficult. But at that time we need to remember that this time too will pass. God has a good plan for our lives.
Did you know that Jesus said, “I leave you with peace”? How does it feel to hear those words? I feel as if someone is hugging me and saying, “Everything will be fine.”
Wake up every morning and take some time to talk to God. Tell Him how you feel. You will see how good your day will be.
Remember, God loves you very much. He wants you to be happy. Whenever you feel down, open your Bible and read it. You will see, you will find new strength.
I pray that you all feel God’s love. May there always be joy in your life. May God bless you.
