Buckle up!

John chapter 16 verses 13 and 14.
Jesus told them; "When the Holy Spirit, who is truth, comes, He shall guide you into all truth, for He will not be presenting His own ideas, but will be passing onto you what He has heard. He will tell you about the future. He shall praise Me and bring Me great honor by showing you My glory."

You totally believe what you have seen and understood with your own eyes. You are sure of what you are talking about and no one can change your mind or take away from you, what you know.
   So why is it so hard to accept the gift of God? Why fight what might be true? Is it because you cannot physically touch God or see Him with your own eyes? It is by faith that we believe God is real and that Jesus is His Son, who died and has been resurrected and some day will return.
   That same resurrection is available to you. All your troubles and misfortunes can be left behind and you can be reborn into a life of happiness and peace. It is by faith that allows us to know Jesus. It is that amazing faith that allows Jesus to bring us into life with God. It is then that we can see the touch of God upon our lives.
   When you come to know Jesus, you will see that He is human, no different than you or I except that He is God. As a human, He has the same temptations and troubles as we do and it is through His actions of prayer and confidence that we see how He is protected and stands out as someone who is with God. It is that difference that others see and want to know more about.
   The disciple, Thomas would not believe that Jesus was alive until he touched His wounds. And when he did, Jesus told him, "Don't be faithless any longer, Believe!" Jesus also said, "Blessed are those who haven't seen Me and believe anyway."
   All you need to do is believe for a moment that Jesus is all that He says He is. That through Him we can come to a life of peace believing that, our money troubles, that our failed and hurt relationships and that our pains and sickness can be healed. The stress and anxiety, brought on by our own thoughts, has a grip on us that is hard to break without relying upon the power and strength of Jesus.
   Jesus lived in peace with so much suffering around Him because His life was with God. Your life can be with God and you can walk with Jesus and you can have the same peace, even with turmoil attacking you. So, buckle up, hold on tight and take the hand of Jesus, trusting in Him to bring you safely away from your troubles and into the Light of God..
   Thank you Father for Jesus and no longer being unaware of Your love, but true life with You forever.😊           

1 Corinthians chapter 9 verses 22 and 23.
Paul replied, "When I am with those whose consciences bother them easily, I don't act as though I know it all and don't say they are foolish; the result is that they are willing to let me help them. Yes, whatever a person is like, I try to find common ground with him so that he will let me tell him about Christ and let Christ save him. I do this to get the Gospel to them and also for the blessing I myself receive when I see them come to Christ."

John chapter 8 verses 25-27.
Jesus replied, "I am the one I have always claimed to be. I could condemn you for much and teach you much, but I won't, for I say only what I am told to by the one who sent Me; and He is Truth." But they still didn't understand that He was talking to them about God."


1 Corinthians chapter 10 verse 13.
"But remember this---the wrong desires that come into your life aren't anything new and different. Many other have faced exactly the same problems before you. And no temptation is irresistible. You can trust God to keep the temptation from becoming so strong that you can't stand up against it, for He has promised this and will do what He says. He will show you how to escape temptations power so that you can bear up patiently against it."
