| Lord, why all this pain? God says: "My child, I love you! The pain you're experiencing is you dying to yourself. Consider your ways!" You see, nobody makes us sin, we do it because we choose to. Sometimes we have problems because we are doing what we want to do, instead of what God wants us to do. But if we will seek His way of being and doing things right about everything in our lives first, then the Bible says that everything we need will be given to us. God will reward us for all the injustices that have been done to us if we do not turn away from Him. But we struggle because we have the desire to please ourselves, instead of the desire to please God by keeping His commandments. We must remember that the only reason we are even on this planet is to serve Him. That puts everything into its proper prospective for us. So when our life gets all out of order, we need to run to God in prayer and ask Him for forgiveness. We need to identify the problem areas in our life, go to the Scriptures, and get our life straight. Prayer should be our first choice, not our last chance. When we pray, it's not to get God to do our will, prayer is getting us ready to do God's Will. We should turn to God in prayer and give Him our whole heart. The Bible says when we do this, He will answer our cry. Faith is our actions based on what we believe, and God tells us in His Word that all things are possible if we only believe. God will restore and refresh our lives when we trust in Him for all things. He will lead us in the path that is right for us because God has a good plan for our lives! |
