Don’t dwell in your troubles but trust in the Son
I am healed when I live at your feet
You draw close to me and my troubles neutralize.
As I remember the cross, that you died
I feel such peace and your strength flows in my mind
Hosannah to the King
Hosannah to the King.
You died for me on the cross full of pain
The Lord sent his son to die for my gain
Now I am freed from my guilt and my sin
Let us sing our praise out to you our holy King
Hosannah to the King
Hosannah to the King.But it not just about singing on a Sunday morning, or a Wednesday.... it is about a way to live. You see when you invite the Son of God, Jesus to come into your life, He comes.
After a time you start to realise that all you have to face in the daily challenges, you face with Him. When you feel you can’t cope that usually means you forgot to pray in the troubles, or ask Him to help you deal with difficult situations.
Now I am not saying that life in the Son is trouble free, no far from it for too many people in this world are out to get what they can regardless of you or others feelings. What I am saying is this: you are not alone.
You can ask for His help and you will be amazed at the words and patience that comes out of your own mouth as you speak to another who is driving you crazy or making you personally feel hopeless or very angry.
You will find you can handle difficult situations and even arguments with others in a calmer way. You find others will back down more and see your point of view.
Things that looked impossible to solve become solved, some things take longer than others I am not promising a McDonalds instant fix here but I am promising that the Lord is faithful and wishes to share your life and help you cope with all that that may mean.
Trust is hard to learn when others around you have let you down in life, it takes time to understand and realise that the Lord Jesus is really real and really with you.
You will never know his comfort or presence if you never stop from you busy world and give him time to reach you.
I heard it said a radio broadcasts and you can listen it to easily. Well I am here to tell you that Jesus also broadcasts His love and grace and wisdom to you through His spirit, don’t ask me how it works I don’t know... but it is possible to listen to God and hear from Him but in order to learn you must be willing to stop and try.
It can take some people years to realise that they need Jesus to help them when all around them is going well, but ask those who have suffered and you will find they have a deeper sense of the Lords presence. Why? Because they really learnt they needed to listen to Him.
When Jesus asks you to give your life to Him, He meant all of your life.
It’s a hearts cry to really wish to know Him. A deep deep need to know Him will be answered for He desires to be so known by you.
I don't write these words without experience for I have MS so I know what it means to really need to hang on to Jesus when all hope seems lost, for when I was diagnosed it was a shock to my system but He came so close to me I could feel His comfort and love within me. So the words I share are truth. My future plans are in Him now for I am not sure what my future will hold but He knows me and what I will be able to cope with.
I need Him everyday.
