Try Jesus

"“Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him"

Matthew 6:8 (New King James Version)


I read this nice story from a blog the other day...A believer walked into a barber shop for a haircut and as the barber cut his hair, the barber kept complaining about how there is no God because there are so many selfish, inconsiderate and mean people out there. So many people who are insensitive , filled with anger and bitterness,...There cant be any God. As the believer got up from the chair he looked at the barber and said "Look outside the window... See how many people have such bad haircuts... There cant be any barber that exists" . The barber said "What do you mean there is no barber ?! They need to come to me ! And then I will give them good haircuts"... The believer smiled at the barber and said "Exactly...People need to come to God...And their lives will be changed"

There are many of us who are and who have family & friends who have an attitude like that of the barber. Just because things have not worked out the way we expected it to work ,we have decided "There is no God !" ..... The Bible says that our Father knows the things we need of even before we ask Him . Wow ! Isnt that amazing ? All we need is to come to Him.... Thats all it takes....All we need is to come to Him and say "Our Father ..." Acknowledge Him as Lord and Saviour of our lives and invite Him to take in charge. And when Jesus Christ is in charge...you can be sure its nothing short of perfection ! Praise the Lord !

I have seen a lot of people who turn to alcohol, drugs, just being rebellious, slipping into depression with self pity,....so many people just lose hope....some go the other extreme and think they can manage on their own strength...... Its time that we tell them "Try Jesus !" ... Our God is in the business of transforming lives :)

We read in Psalm 147 : 3-5 "He heals the brokenhearted And binds up their wounds. He counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name.Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.".... Our God is a God of compassion... His understanding is infinite.... When we think that no one understands our pain or that no one understands what we are going through , Jesus is saying "I know exactly what you are going through...and not just that, I know what the future holds for you too if you just trust in Me...Let Me take care of you....Just lean on Me..."
