Challenges, commotions, fear of the unknown, sufferings,
death, evil amongst others characterizes our society presently. It is constantly from one
evil occurrence to the other. There are joblessness, marital wars, terrorism, earthquakes,
famine, volcano eruption…the endless struggle for survival continues. The
hearts of many are already failing them; the younger ones are faced with a
daunting bleak future and infidelity is now the order of the day. There is uncertainty
everywhere.
Right in the face of these storms of life, many are
being misguided and they are not seeking help appropriately. The more they tend
to run faster than their shadows, the more entangled they become with disappointments.
Some resort to alcohol, hard drugs, immorality etc. to manage the stress and
hard breaks but the truth is that, those methods can never solve any problem
else, it aggravates the issues to other ordeals because; evil can never be used
to fight evil.
In the midst of all these alarming disorders, there is
only a place where you can find abiding peace which lasts forever; that is in JESUS. You see, it is only in Christ
that you can find real peace which flows like a river, the best rest for your
aching soul. That is why the bible tells us in (John 14:
27) Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives,
give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. You
can only experience this peace when you accept Jesus into your life as your Lord,
personal Savior and Friend. He is the answer to your life questions, Jesus is
the only reason for living and without Him, life is absolutely meaningless.
Jesus is a friend who stands by you when all persons have deserted you. He is
the only helping hand you need inside that pit of agony and pain that you are in
right now. Only Jesus can set you free.
God is not interested in your past life of sin and
mistakes as long as you will confess and forsake them. “If we confess
our sins, He is faithful and just to cleanse us from our sins and to cleanse us
from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9) There is a fountain
filled with the blood of Jesus, which was shed on the Cross of Calvary for your
unrighteousness and the forgiveness of your sins, it is still available now to wash
all your sins away. Devil might try to condemn you and the guilt of your past life
might be flashing through your mind, but note this: the bible says in 1 John
3:20 “For if our heart
condemns us, God is greater than our hearts and knoweth all things”
So what are you waiting for? Give Jesus a chance in
your life today. He is standing at the door of your heart knocking. He loves
you, He cares for you and want to give you peace. Please do not ignore this
call.
