1 Timothy chapter 2 verses 2-5.
"Pray to God for others, so that we can live in peace and quietness, spending our time in godly living and thinking much about the Lord. This is good and pleases God our Savior, for He longs for all to be saved and to understand this truth: That God is on one side and all the people on the other side, and Christ Jesus, Himself man, is between them to bring them together, by giving His life for all mankind." 

How high are the mountains of your life? Does it feel like you just make it over one, only to find another is there? Are you exhausted from always having to have such intense focus? Always watching closely to each step, in order to not completely fall?
   So what does having a life with God got to do with my troubles? God will make your burdens light and help you to see that it is Jesus who is helping you and that it is His Holy Spirit who fills you with the joy of being thankful to Jesus.
   If we continue to struggle, than the mountains will forever seem to be to high to get over. There will be a never ending climb from one issue to another. God is asking us to take Jesus' hand and hold closely to Him. He is not going to let you fall. And by holding close to Him and trusting in Him you will find peace.
   Do the mountains go away? No, but they defiantly are easier to overcome when you are living in the presence of God. God is amazing and almighty. Will He do miracles in your life? Probably! For He comes to them who come to Jesus. It is your gratitude and thanksgiving that He wants. He wants you to walk with Him in His garden, playing and taking care of all He has given you. He wants you to see Jesus and that through Jesus you have been able to come to Him. And most of all, it is your joy brought to you by the Holy Spirit that keeps you seeing the wonderful love of God and His world, the people He cares about.
   There is an ultimate peace and it comes only from Jesus. No matter how many burdens we have, no matter how impossible they may seem to overcome, when you are living with Jesus, you are trusting in God to be with you always. He is your Father who will protect you and see to it that you have joy and happiness. That you are amazed and thankful.
   When you live in His Light you can see clearly the goodness to life all around you. And that makes you stand out as someone filled with peace. Enjoy life and the people around you. Help them to find their way and to share in the amazing garden that God walks with us in.
   Thank you Father for Jesus. Thank you for Your patience as we seek your love and life with You. 😊
