On My Last Straw

How many of you have been to a point in your life were you felt helpless, hopeless, and/or bound by difficult situations? Where, if one more bad thing happened, it would tip the scale. If one more person did you wrong, you were going to go crazy. If you couldn't pay one more bill, you were going to give up. If you couldn't get healed, you were going to breakdown. Many of us feel that we are at our last straw and that the weight of this world is too much to bear. But, I want to let you know that God sent His son Jesus to die for you, to shed His blood. Jesus was beaten and every wound makes you healed. Jesus was talked about but in the end He was the savior of everyone's life. Jesus took two fish and fives loaves of bread and fed 5000. So, know that he can put food in your refrigerator. Know that he can make a way for your bills to be paid. When bad things happen, you are just going through a test. At the end of that test lies a great reward. The only thing you have to do is stand firm on the rock, which is Jesus. Don't stand on sinking sand; stand on the rock. When you reach the end of that trying test; that difficult situation, you can believe that God will have something GREAT waiting for you. He only wants to know that He can trust you with YOUR blessings. He has blessings waiting on YOU. Would you give your children or your loved ones a gift if you knew they would take it for granted or they would let it go to waste or even throw it away? That's how God feels with us. He wants to bless you; you just have to trust Him. You just have to give Him all of you. Give Him your problems and leave your problems with Him. Don't take them back with you into your home or your surroundings. So, someone is spreading lies about you. Someone is dragging your name through mud. So, someone is bringing up your past. Just pray for them. Love them anyway, because God will bless you for it. At the same time, the same ones that are talking about you cannot deny the change you made when you began to live for Christ. The ones who are talking about you probably want to be blessed like you but they are right where you use to be. Bound and shackled by the curses of the world. They talk about you because the devil wants to use them to tear you down. But you have the Power of God to hold you up. So don't give up. Don't throw in the towel. Just wait a little while longer and BELIEVE!, TRUST! that God WILL make a way. Now, what you can do right now is PRAISE HIM FOR IT IN ADVANCE. Praise Him before you even see signs of a breakthrough because in actuality, the moment you truly know that God will make a way, the way was just made. You just have to wait on God. Watch Him work on your behalf. Hallelujah!! Praise Him. Praise Him. Thank you Jesus. HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED!!
