Common Sense

When we are totally exasperated, depressed and afraid. How do we regain the feelings of safety, peace and security?  What can we do to climb out of this deep and slimy pit?  Is there anything that can be done?   Do we struggle for one step forward and slide two or three steps back?  Are we to a point of giving up, totally succumbing to death?  Looking forward to the end of this life?
 I pray not. Life is not always a bowl of cherries.  The best of humans have some very bad times as they live their lives.  Some can handle these periods better than others.  Why is this and what is the difference?  It may be difficult to believe and to understand at first.  But, there is good news available to anyone with breath to breath, with a mind to think, and a heart that longs for peace, joy and goodness.  The darkness of this moment may be a blessing that brings us to a point of Light that will change us for eternity. When we were placed here on planet earth we were given a couple of things that are common to almost everyone.  We don't know how it happened, we just know that it happened.  Suddenly we are here!  Common sense tells us that a creator created us.  Another thing we were given is choices and the ability to choose.  Common sense even tells us what is true and what is not.  Sometimes our choices are wrong and we choose deceit over truth, thus we find ourselves in many hurtful, harmful and painful predicaments. But there is Good News.  God, our Creator, wants us to belong to Him by our choosing Him.   He has always loved us and wants the best for us.  He knows our sins and our flaws, and he has made provisions for us so that we may spend eternity with Him.  He has done it all for us, all we need to do is to choose to accept His gift of love. John 3:16 says; "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."  These words were spoken by Jesus, God's Son, and the "whoever believes in him" is you and me.   This is fantastic news!  There is no ending for those of us who have accepted this wonderful gift.   Know this;  God's goodness, and His grace is much more than our badness, our sin and our hatefulness.  I encourage you to make this choice now and accept His gift of Love.  Then let someone know!  Pass it forward because it is really Great News!
