Without going in to details, this week has brought a lot of bad news. I hate the reality of the hurts and hardships of life...I hate when others let you down and lose your respect. Life is tough, there is no doubt about that. My heart is severely aching for some people I cherish...3 of them have lost their jobs today. Not just any job, but jobs that they have poured their heart and soul in to...pray for them and their families, and honestly pray for the ones who made the decision to let them go.
Next up, one of my dear friends had a husband who apparently walked out on her this week. Pray for her, her daughter, and newborn son...and honestly pray for him too. Once again, an unimaginable situation...
Among all of the world chaos in the Middle East, the chaos here in the US, the chaos within families, chaos within companies, etc... ONE THING STANDS FIRM...our Lord and Savior Jesus. The ONE who started and created us all, who loves us unconditionally, and knows our hurts and concerns. Jesus ALONE saves lives, heals hurts, heals burdens, and gives us hope! Regardless of what this life throws our way, we have a hope of things eternal and not of this world. This temporary life on Earth is guaranteed to give us hurt, pain, uncertainty, hardship, etc...but our focus has to be on how we glorify God on Earth, and know we will rejoice and have everlasting goodness in heaven. I hope this comforts those of you reading this...and keeps things in perspective for you. LIFE ON EARTH IS HARD AND IS THANKFULLY TEMPORARY...LIFE WITH CHRIST IN HEAVEN IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT. I hate to say this, but as this world is seemingly spiraling downward, PLEASE make sure you truly have your relationship with Christ secure. Give your life to Christ today if you haven't truly done that already. He forgives us, comforts us, and thankfully saves us.
