Struggles and chaos by Max Lucado

 

Struggles

He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.” — Matthew 26:39

 

We all struggle. But did you ever think that perhaps God may be using your struggles to change you? To shape you? Even to heal you? For two years I have been asking God to remove the pain in my writing hand. Even as I write these words, I feel stiffness in my thumb, fingers, forearm, and shoulder. The doctors chalk it up to thirty-plus books written in longhand. Over the decades the repeated motion has restricted my movement, rendering the simplest of tasks — writing a sentence on a sheet of paper—difficult.

 

So I do my part. I stretch my fingers. A therapist massages the muscles. I avoid the golf course. I even go to yoga! But most of all I pray. Better said, I argue.

 

Shouldn’t God heal my hand? My pen is my tool. Writing is my assignment. So far He hasn’t healed me.

 

Or has He? These days I pray more as I write. Not eloquent prayers but honest ones.

 

Lord, I need help... Father, my hand is stiff. The discomfort humbles me. I’m not Max, the author. I am Max, the guy whose hand is wearing out. I want God to heal my hand.

 

Thus far He has used my hand to heal my heart.

 

So that thing you’re struggling with, that you’ve prayed about over and over and over again... could it be that God is using it to heal your heart?

 

~Before Amen

 

 

Chaos

 

Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you. — 1 Peter 5:7 NIV

 

Imagine this scene. It is breakfast time, and the family is in chaos. The daughters are complaining about their brother who took too much time in the bathroom. As a result their hair isn’t brushed and makeup isn’t applied. Mom is doing her best to manage the conflict, but she woke up with a headache and a long list of things to do. The clock is ticking like a time bomb, ever closer to that moment when, boom! It’s time to go. Dad stops at the kitchen entryway and surveys the pandemonium. He weighs his options:

  • Command everyone to shape up and behave.
  • Berate his son for dominating the bathroom, his daughters for poor planning, and his wife for not taking control.
  • Sneak out before anyone notices.

Or he could turn to God with a simple prayer: Father, You are good. I need help. Reduce the frenzy in my house, please. Will the prayer change everything? It may. Or it may take another prayer, or two, or ten. But at least the problem will be in the hands of the One who can solve it.

 

~ Before Amen

Hoe to make any day better

https://youtu.be/tmDFA_TDTco 

Жизнь на земле бывет тяжелой, но....

 «И ВОЗНЕНАВИДЕЛ Я ЖИЗНЬ» (Еккл.2:17). Это слова самого богатого, успешного и мудрого человека, который когда-либо был на земле. Если такой человек испытывал разочарование в своей жизни, часто повторяя: «все суета и томление духа» - то, что, тогда говорить нам?

ЗЕМНАЯ жизнь очень часто приносит нам разочарование, потому что она наполнена страданиями. Грехи, боль, зло, несправедливость, несовершенство во всех сферах – все это усугубляет и так мрачную картину под названьем: «жизнь».
ПРОКЛЯТИЕ ЗЕМНОЙ ЖИЗНИ – ЭТО СВОЕГО РОДА; АД НА ЗЕМЛЕ.
«ГОСПОДИ! Ты вывел из ада душу мою и оживил меня, чтобы я не сошел в могилу» (Пс.29:4). Так когда-то молился Давид. Действительно жизнь на земле бывает очень и очень тяжелой! И у каждого человека есть эта, своя мера тяжести и свое понятие: «жизни, как в аду».
ТАК ВОТ если бы не Бог – то действительно: жизнь на земле была бы безнадежным и невыносимым существованием! Но на эту грешную землю пришел Иисус Христос и стал Человеком. Потом Он взошел на крест и принес Себя в Жертву за грехи всего мира.
ГОСПОДЬ разбавил беспросветную тьму Своим Светом! Более того, Христос входит в сердце каждого человека, который приходит к Нему с покаянием своих грехов. И таким образом жизнь верующего человека приобретает смысл.
СМЫСЛ жизни в Боге! Господь дает человеку силы и надежду, наполняет миром, радостью, уверенностью… Более того, Бог приготовил для Своих детей Вечность – это то Место, где не будет уже никаких страданий, зла, горя и слез. Вечное Блаженство в общении с Богом.
ПОЭТОМУ, братья и сестры, дорогие друзья, как бы, не была бы тяжела жизнь, какие бы проблемы бы не обрушились на нас, даже потеряв все – знайте; Бог может все изменить и вывести нас даже из земного ада! Давайте будем искать Бога!
ДА благословит всех нас Господь! Аминь.
/a.vlasov/

“Repent” is how Jesus says “welcome” to sinners in the Gospel.

https://sermonquotes.com/profound/17091-repent-is-how-jesus-says-welcome-to-sinners-in-the-gospel.html?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email1&utm_content=currentquote&utm_campaign=dailynewsletter 

The repentance (metanoia) called for throughout the Bible is a summons to a personal, absolute and ultimate unconditional surrender to God as Sovereign. Though it includes sorrow and regret, it is more than that. ... In repenting, one makes a complete change of direction (180° turn) toward God.
