Giving My Best for Him

Just a quick something...

Hello everyone. Yes, I am still alive... and I realize it has been a dreadfully long time since I last made an entry. My bad... pray that the Lord gives me some inspiration, then I might be writing more often, just lately I haven't had very much. :(

Anyways, today this won't be a very long entry. I just want to share with you, how God has been blessing me in my life in the past while and helping me to grow as a stronger Christian. :)

Lately I have had some tough days. I know we all do at some point in our lives, but I especially was having what seemed to me like an "extra" rough time... that is, until I did something which has made a huge difference in my life.

There were some days where I really didn't know what could be done anymore. I had many 'burdens' and things that were bothering me, and I didn't know how I was going to be able to handle anything anymore... you know how sometimes you can search for an answer to your problems, but all in the wrong places and for all the wrong reasons? Well, I went through that for a while and then realized I was wrong and thought to myself, "As long as I'm doing this on my own, it's never going to work! Why don't I just give my troubles to the Lord and let Him help me sort them out, but in His time?"

I did just that. I prayed to Jesus and told Him all that was burdening me and troubling me. After doing this, I asked for Him to guide me everyday and to make me happy and content with what I have and in all my situations and to show me what to do about these things that had been worrying me.

It is amazing how powerful God really is. Soon after, He showed me so clearly what I needed to do and then also that He is with me and He will help me and He will never leave me or forsake me. This was a wonderful encouragement to me and now I am once again happy and content in Christ, the only real source of true happiness. I need nothing from this world, just as long as I have Jesus and the assurance that He will never leave my side. :)

So if you are having problems, do what I did, take them to Christ and let Him guide you and help you figure them out. He is far bigger than our problems and is able to help us with anything...plus it is much easier than doing it your own way. ;)

Hope this has encouraged you in some way or another.

In Christ,

Taryn

Amen

We do need to take all our trouble to Jesus '"Cast all your cares upon Him, for He cares for you". Thanks for the encouraging post.

Hi Friend

Keep looking to Jesus, listening to Jesus, talking to Jesus, sharing your dreams with Jesus, giving your all, surrendering all unto Him. You are His, O' how He loves you.
In Him; Elton
