As Christians, we often hear the words“God’s will.”But what does that mean exactly, and what do those words mean to us? In the broad sense, when we say God’s will, it means his supreme will for all humanity to be saved. But when we refer to God’s will for each one of us, it means God’s destiny or his plan.

We all experience sadness. It often happens after something stressful,or upsetting occurs in our lives. We have lost our job, ended a relationship, or experienced some other hardship, like losing a loved one. These events make us sad for obvious reasons, and when we become sad, we have to give ourselves the necessary time to recover. During this time, the one source we have is the Lord. But unfortunately, many blame god for what has happened.Blaming God is not the answer; it will not help us move beyond our sadness.

We all go through periods when we have doubts. We occasionally doubt our family, friends, and even ourselves,but worst of all, we doubt our God. Doubt is a mental state in which we find between belief and disbelief. It is part of our human makeup. The Lord understands this and knows that we will have doubts about him. But when we do, we have a choice. We can give into them, which will only worsen our doubts, or we can reach out to the Lord and let him help us move beyond them.

The Lord never answers us with words when we pray, yet the things we pray for are often granted. This happens because the Lord intervenes in some way, through events he creates or actions he has others perform. Whether we are aware of it or not, the Lord has and will continue to intervene in our lives, granting us something we prayed for or, more often than not, something he wanted us to have that we were never expecting.

One of the most important emotions that we, as Christians, must be willing to express, is compassion. So much of our Christian faith and beliefs are based on compassion. When Jesus walked the earth, he demonstrated compassion for all those he encountered.

Yet, too often, we do not offer compassion when we should.Why?

Listen to this podcast and learn how to change the way we are and how easy it is to become more conscious of those around us and their needs, allowing us to live up to our Christian commitment of being compassionate.

We all have opinions, and that is okay. We can criticize a movie, a song, or a book, but as Christians, we should not criticize one another. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. We tend to criticize those who do not agree with us, those who do not dress the way we think they should, and those who do not act the way we think they should. However, there is no place for criticizing anyone in the life of a Christian. So, why do we do it, and what can we do about it?Tune into this podcast and let Art explain why we are often critical of one another and how, with the help of the Lord, we can learn to accept everyone for who they are because each of us is God’s people. Join this podcast to understand that with the help of the Lord, we can resist the urge to criticize and learn to look for the good in one another, no matter how different they maybe from us.
