Stay firm on your course for Jesus

There are times when we feel we can't go on anymore. There are times when we feel the going are just too much for us to bear. There are times when we feel like just give up and end our lives. This may sound familiar to some of us cause we are going through some tough challenges.

Some of us may be fighting against some forms of terminal diseases. Some of us may be facing lack in our finances and trying our best to make ends meet. Some of us may be dealing with a difficult family issue like potential divorce.

Fret not! For there is hope in Christ!

What is not right in our lives, as long we choose to believe in Jesus' finished work at the cross, will be made right. The moment we have a heart knowledge of how wonderful the finished work at the cross is, miracles happen.

Take the woman with the issue of blood in the bible. She was suffering from that disease for twelve years. Yet the moment she touched the hem of Jesus' garment, she was immediately healed of that disease. By the way, Jesus was making His way to save Jairus' daughter who happened to die before Jesus could reach her. However, Jesus didn't stop there. He told Jairus not to be afraid and continued his journey to Jairus' house and brought his daughter back to life!

Jesus was able to bring a situation from dead to life. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. He is still turning our bad situations to good. Just believe in Him. For greater is He who is in me than he who is of the world. Hallelujah.

Do not fear

What do we do when we had received a bad report about our health? How do we response when something bad just happened to us? What is our immediate response when we heard a loved one is injured?

How often do we think of the worst case scenario straight away when we received these news? We don't usually think that things will work out well in spite of what had happened. We were so quick to always expect the worst when something bad had happened that we forgot that sometimes things weren't as bad as the initial report presented to be.

Maybe that's why there are 365 verses in the bible that tell us do not fear or do not be afraid. One verse for each day of our lives. If something bad happens, for Christians, we can expect that it will work out for our good. Perhaps some of us had lost our jobs and we are thinking naturally how we are going to get a job , especially, if some of us are advanced in age. Perhaps a loved one is suffering from terminal cancer and we think there is no nope.

Do not be afraid when bad things happen. For we can look to Jesus for deliverance out of that bad happening. Jesus can turn things around for our good. Just remains at rest and God will take care of all our cares.
