God's gift

God said give me your burdens and I will give you rest.  That's means that He's with us all the time and we shouldn't hold on to anything or stop us from building The Body of Christ.  We all have things that we deal with and sometimes situations are tough to handle but God is a good God and He's always holding our hand and sometimes carrying us along the way.  It's very important that we prepare ourselves for storms because we are in a spiritual warfare and it's not going to be easy all the time.  We do that by trusting God and walking with faith each day.  Also, it's important to clear our minds from nonsense because it's not good to surround ourselves with people who we know don't have our best interest at heart.  Most of the time, burdens or situations come from people or ourselves.  If someone loves  you and has your best interest, he or she will treat you with respect and love you unconditionally so don't be fooled but keep it moving.  When we're working to better ourselves, sometimes we lose friends and that's okay because we gain more down the road.  We all are God's children and when we are good examples it shows the light in us and people would want to be a part of the wonderful love that Jesus provides.  We don't have time to stop serving God so let's continue to love so that we all may stay connected to God and have peace in this wonderful gift called life.  Amen
