HOLD YOUR HEAD UP
Jesus goes out of his way to help us through life. That has always been his way. One day as Jesus looked out over the crowd who had gathered around him – Jesus began to bless people who were in some of life’s most difficult struggles. Jesus blessed people who were dealing with depression, people who had lost loved ones, people who were waiting for their turn in life, people who were trying to do the right thing – yet failing time and time again, people who were doing the right thing but their goodness was not good enough because other people were still mistreating them without cause.
All of us have a struggle in life. Some people deal with health issues – mental and physical, others deal with relationship issues, and some people deal with issues related to money – either they don’t have enough to take care of themselves or they have a lot of money yet they feel empty because money is not the answer to all problems.
What Jesus shares in Matthew 5:1-12 is encouragement for everyone. Hold your head up! There is no need to walk around with your head hung down. No matter what struggle you are in – God wants to lighten your burden. The only way to find out how God can lighten your burden is to ask him to help you. Whenever we sincerely ask God for help – believing he will come through – God will give help or make it available to you. TRUST AND BELIEVE – ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE TO THEM THAT BELIEVE. (Mark 9:23)
Have a blessed life!
