Gaining peace one day at a time

Hello everyone,

The other day, I talked about trusting God and dealing with life.  I just want to elaborate on that a little by saying we will always have situations because that’s how God designed this life for us, and therefore, we should trust Him to get through all things.  This life is designed to make us holy and strong to deal with trials and tribulations so that we can make it to Heaven.  Also, we have to understand that most of our lives, we deal with others so in knowing that, we have to always TRUST God and pray for wisdom and understanding that nobody is perfect, and all people make mistakes including us.

Trusting God is what gives us peace and having less stress in our lives.  God wants us to be strong and able to get through things that come before us each day so that we can serve according to His mission. When we have to deal with things, it’s just God working in our lives, but we have to learn how to give our burdens to Him and know the purpose of our being.  If everything was good or perfect, how can we get better and how can we get stronger?

We have to go through some tough times to grow in the name of Jesus.  What I’ve said above and what I’m about to say now are very important.  He sent His Son Jesus, to show us some very powerful things.  He went through Pain, He Suffered and Died for us and every time I think of my pain or what I’m dealing with, I can’t help but to think about what He did for us. Our pain is nowhere near what Jesus went through. Amen and Thank You so much Lord. When we go through situations, let’s continue to know that God is trying to prepare us to be better people and to grow on our journey.

We also have to understand that nobody is perfect.  It’s human to get mad at things when we do wrong or when people do wrong to us.  This is something we have to grow into to learn that people are people, and we all make mistakes.  The important thing about this is everybody is learning on his or her journey.  Somethings that we know, people may not be there yet and somethings that others know, we may not be there yet.  We learn from each other and love is the core that keeps us together to grow. What I’m saying is let’s not get upset or angry when we witness wrongdoing but show love and forgiveness, show compassion, and show understanding.  The important part of this is to grow in every situation so that all of us can witness the love of God and learn from mistakes to handle situations with wisdom and integrity.

If we can see through the lenses of God how this works, we will definitely be on the road to happiness, peace and joy.  Amen and Amen
