I have gotten into troubled situations before, circumstances i hate falling into and i look up sometimes and ask God why?
Troubles face every corner of our lives, does being christian mean that you should have no troubles? No. But maybe fewer troubles or atleast knowing the fact we can hold our fathers hand as we go through our troubles and that he will always take care of us.
As many of you people who do go to church we usually always hear the same message as i stated above but its hard to follow it when we fall into troubled times. But i think its all about the mindset or how you view the situation. Praising Jesus no matter what the good times and the bad times. Think positive and move forward. Its hard i know but we have to constantly/actively forcing youselves to become more like Christ, change our mindset and see the bigger picture and believe that Jesus is in control.
There are so many things to be thankful about can you name atleast 20? lol.. have u taken the time out and thanked God for the most basic stuff? like for example here is my quick 10 things i am thankful for......
1. being born in a christian family
2. Amazing loving parents
3. loving sister
4. Good friends
5. Access to basic necessities - food/roof/ internet(lol)
6. Great church
7. Jesus for loving someone like me
8. Dying on the cross for me
9. Always watching over me
10. Good health
These stuff look basic but u might say are u really thankful for that? look at the people starving in the world, people with no homes, broken families - i mean we are really lucky and take things for granted.
Espcially my number 1, have u really thought about it? "Being born in a christian family" i think i am so lucky in that regard. Its hard for people to change religions when you grow up your whole life believing one... but being lucky to have access to the true God from day 1? Its something not to take lightly. If i hadnt been born in a christian family what are the chances i would even look to christianity? Not 0% but it would be pretty slim to be honest.
I think you should make your list of top 10 or top 20 and sit down and praise God today actually infact right now. I am going to kneel down and praise God after i post this blog. I think you should to.
I am going through a hard time myself on a few issues and i think all the more reason to take time off and thank God for his blessings so far in life and in the things yet to come :)
Bless you guys.
