The little child comes to you about 30 minutes after all the Christmas presents have been opened and he/she has tears running down their cheeks. Their new toy is broken!! What to do? You hug them and tell them everything will be OK, then you try to fix it.
Someone threw a rock through your plate window. It’s cold and windy outside, so you find the duct tape and cover it up until it can be fixed. The repairs are all done and all is good again.
You were following a semi down the road and a big rock comes sailing through the air and breaks your windshield. You get angry as he drives on and there is nothing you can do to stop him. So, you call the insurance company and then take it to get repaired. You pay the deductible, it’s fixed, life goes on, and all is well.
Your health is broken!! You go to the doctor for a routine checkup and he finds you have a problem and it needs to be fixed. You get upset, cry a few tears, gather yourself, and hopefully get it taken care of. It’s fixed, life goes on, and all is well.
Your life is broken. Completely shattered, in shambles, tears running down the cheeks, nothing is working, no where to turn, all is lost, and you are at your wits end!! What to do? Some will turn to a psychologist to get help. Some will turn to a friend. Some will lean on their spouse. Some will crawl up inside a bottle of booze. Some will turn to some type of drug. Some, if it gets bad enough, will turn to suicide. Psychologist, friend, spouse, alcohol, drugs, suicide–REALLY?? Will any of these actually work? Probably not.
The one thing that will work is God. He is the Great Physician!! He has given us His written and living word to find the answers we need. He has an open communication line, through prayer, that we can talk to him. He will never give up on us or forsake us. He will be there in any time of need. Talk to Him, let Him speak to you through His word, you’ll be amazed how quickly your life will turn around!! You have cried the tears, gathered yourself, and got your life fixed. All is well!!
Have a good day!! SMILE God loves YOU!!
