Our life is made up of varied episodes. Every day brings its own challenges, and each situation we face requires different approach to solution. Some of these episodes bring us joy, but others strip us of our happiness or force us to make tough choices. These are choices that bring changes to our life. Sometimes, it can be very difficult for us to cope with changes, whether it has to do with our relationships, our friendships, our careers, our beliefs, and even our ways of doing certain things. The reason being the uncertainty that trots in our minds and the fear of the unknown future that lays ahead.  Whenever we feel changes need to be done to improve our life, we need to be brave enough to move forward, but it is really important to align  our choices and decisions with what the Lord our God tells us and requires from us.  

There is always a greater joy in writing for the glory of our Father in Heaven. What matters is the meaning we give to every single word and what we do of it. For the Lord's teaching is the greatest riches that ever exists: it gives joy; it gives happiness; it gives hope; it brings healing; it gives strength; it gives love; it is the only source of life.

Turn to the Lord and be saved. Honour the  Lord your God, worship Him for salvation comes from the Lord alone. 

The Lord Almighty said: “Come to me, all of you who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke and put it on you, and learn from Me, because I am gentle and humble in Spirit; and you will find rest. For the yoke I will give you is easy, and the load I will put on you is light.’’ Matthew 11:28-30 

“The Lord watches over those who obey Him, those who trust in his constant love. He saves them from death; He keeps them alive in times of famine.” Psalms 33:18-19. Bring to the Lord all your pains and worries; be faithful to Him at all times, even if the seas roar and the mountains thunder. Be faithful to the Lord your God and to Him give all glory and praise. “Those who obey Him have all they need. Even lions go hungry for lack of food, but those who obey the Lord lack nothing good.” Psalms 34:9-10

Every sinner is a prisoner, a sick at heart. Healing comes only with repentance and through our redemption by Christ Jesus. Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Healer of all broken souls. He restores the health of whoever comes to Him with a humble and repentant heart. ''He is patient with you, because He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants all to turn from their sins.’’ (2 Peter 3:9)

Everything we do in life works for us or against us. The same measure you use for others will be used for you. In the same way our righteousness is graciously rewarded by our Lord, our greed and stubbornness makes our "punishment even greater on the Day when God's anger and righteous judgments will be revealed. For God will reward every person according to what each has done. Some people keep on doing good, and seek glory, honour, and immortal life; to them God will give eternal life. Other people are selfish and reject what is right, in order to follow what is wrong; on them God will pour out his anger and fury. There will be suffering and pain for all those who do what is evil."  Romans 2:5-9

We cannot life happily without welcoming Christ in our lives. For those who reject God remain forever under the power of sin and death. However, those who seek to know God must keep in mind that faith is the ultimate element to build a relationship with the Sovereign Lord. Hebrews 11:6 tells us that  "no one can please God without  faith, for whoever comes to God must have faith that God exists and rewards those who seek Him."

There is a greater joy in giving than in receiving. We all know or meet people in need - whether they are members of our families, strangers, friends or enemies. Our responsibility as individuals is to show them that we care, by helping them stand back on their feet through generous gifts, just like our Lord wants us to do. For the Lord first gave to us.

Our Lord Jesus says, “If one of you wants to be great, he must be the servant of the rest; and if one of you wants to be first, he must be your slave – like the Son of Man, who did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life to redeem many people.’’ Matthew 20:26-28

Never look at your condition as a weakness; instead, have a peace of mind, and you will be healthy. Be patient, for our Lord Jesus has a plan for you – all good things come from our Lord Almighty. Be patient and content with what you have – do not steal, do not envy, Do not try to be like others – The Lord does not tolerate any of that. Be thankful for your life and for who you are; “for we each have our load to carry.’’ (Galatians 6:5) – ‘’The rich have to use their money to save their lives, but no one threatens the poor,’’ (Proverbs 13:8)

Before our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ was taken back to Heaven, He prayed not only for his disciples, but also for all of us who believe in Him, asking the Father to keep us safe from the Evil One, the ruler of the world, the father of all lies. Because, just like Christ our Lord, we do not belong to the world. Our Lord also commands us not to love the world or anything that belongs to it. For anyone who becomes a friend of the world makes themselves God's enemy.
