Your place!

Psalms chapter 25 verses 12 and 13.
"Where is the man who fears the Lord? God will teach him how to choose the best. He shall live within God's circle of blessing, and his children shall inherit the earth."
 
Is your life at peace?
   No matter who you are we all have stuff that keeps our minds occupied. Maybe you are a happy go lucky person who thinks that by living a upbeat life, you do not have to believe that God is real. You deal with your problems as they come, hoping that you will get through them without to much grief.
   Maybe you are someone who is stuck in a rut and cannot for any reason believe that there is a God who would allow people to suffer as they do. Maybe you are someone who is caught in the grasp of addiction and to heal, hurts too much. So, you stay held in the grip of false happiness and failing hopes.
   God is the light that is all around us everyday. He is the night time in which we try to sleep and find healing. The problem with seeing God and all His wonderful love, is the stuff that we think of. For example; how to solve the problems we have or why can't I understand?
   God has now made it possible to know His peace through having life with Him. Jesus is the way! You may be doubtful but unless you try than you will never know real peace. God's peace is truly much higher than our minds can understand, which makes it so amazing.
   God is available to all people all the time. It is just a matter of calling out to Him and that is when you will experience Jesus and His love for you. Are you ready? You need to believe that God is there, waiting to hear from you. Can you do that or are you too occupied with judgement or worries?
   Just like anything new, you need to take the first steps towards learning whats required. Do not give up. Really truly believe that there is peace available to you. God knows you are calling. He knows you are trying and He will help you.
   Our youth fills us with the excitement of new experiences. Traveling, job's, saving money, spending money, getting stuff, marriage, children, family and homes. New experiences are great and can help fill our time but they do not last. Before you know it something trips you up and you are halted abruptly in your tracks. Maybe it is health or loss of work or failures. Whatever the reasons there becomes issues to deal with. You feel surrounded, caged, seeking answers but not finding them. You search your thoughts and are not finding simple solutions. Why can't things be easy going and good through out our lifetime?
   There is an answer and it lies in Jesus. It is only when you are ready, that Jesus can make sense to you. Any doubts about God or Jesus will quickly be replaced with understanding. You are looking for answers. You are looking for help. You are looking for peace and refuge. You are the one who is calling out. No one else is doing it for you. You are exhausted from fighting all your thoughts, your worries and those closest to you. You are ready! and Jesus is there to hear you.
   You talk to Him. You cry out! You have held in, for way to long, your want for peace and love. You feel instant relief. You feel like you have unloaded those heavy weights. You feel free. You feel thankful. You feel joy and amazement. Jesus has heard you. There is the feeling of starting over, a new beginning. It is something that you never thought possible, but it is happening and it is happening to you.
   All that you have heard is true. You get the best nights sleep you have had in such a long time. You can't think of the last time you felt this good. Everything is making sense. Love has replaced your jumbled thoughts. Clearly you are seeing for the first time the paths on which to walk. Why did you not see these before? The difference is Jesus. He is right there with you. You realize, He has always been there but now you are walking with Him.
   Your issues are still there but your focus is on Jesus. Your problems are being dealt with. You are the one with the right answers. Everyone is amazed at what is happening to you. You are amazed. With Jesus, you feel warm and the light is like something you have not seen before. What once was confusing is now gone. Your place of refuge, your home, your peace has been found in Jesus. There is no where else you want to be. His promises are true and you are home with God.
   Thank you Father for Jesus. Thank You, that no matter who I am or the problems I have, You are there waiting. Anyone who has burdens can come to You and find that You are there for them. 😊     

John chapter 14 verse 27.
Jesus told them, "I am leaving you with a gift---peace of mind and heart! And the peace I give is not fragile like the peace the world gives. So do not be troubled or afraid.

Philippians chapter 4 verses 6 and 7.
"Do not worry about anything; instead pray about everything; tell God your needs and do not forget to thank Him for His answers. If you do this you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will keep your thoughts and your hearts quiet and at rest as you trust in Christ Jesus."

Isaiah chapter 41 verse 10.
"Fear not, for I am with you. Be not be dismayed. I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will help you; I will uphold you with My victorious right hand."
