Proof

Yesterday we looked at how we have hope, we have problems, and we have a future. Satan will attack, he will do everything that he can to destroy your intimate relationship with Christ Jesus. We have to prove our faith by who we turn to when the trials hit. It is easy for us to praise HIM when things are going well and we fell close to HIM, but what about when the trials hit? If you find that you can't have children, or you've been terminated from your position, or you are informed that you have something that is life threatening and can't be cured, or worse a loved one has it? What then? Who do you turn to when you are at the end of the road? It is in these moments that Jesus wants to give you a hug and let you know that HE has endured all so that we can turn to HIM in these moments. Just remember when you are at the cross in the road and the tears are coming down your face, that there is a nail scared hand reaching up to a thorn pierced brow to wipe away a tear shed for you. Because while we are at our cross roads we must remember that Christ HIMSELF defeated the cross and won the battle. So although we might go through our struggles we must always remember that HE is with us and HE has already won the war. So it is Jesus HIMSELF that we need to turn to.

Remember what Matthew said in chapter 11 as he closes out that chapter. "Turn to me all who are burdened and heavy laded and I will give you rest, for MY yoke is easy and MY burden is light."

Right now spend some time mediating on Jesus and turning our problems over to HIM. Just spend some time relaxing in HIS SPIRIT. Turn your yoke over to HIM today.
