QUOTES ON TOP

“I want something really worthwhile to live for. I want to invest this one life of mine as wisely as possible, in the place that yields the richest profits to the world and me…wherever it is, I want it to be God’s choice for me and not my own… Christ said, “He that would find his life shall lose it” and proved the truth of this divine paradox at Calvary. I want Him to lead me and His Holy Spirit to fill me.” – Betty Stam

I WILL GIVE YOU REST SAYS JESUS CHRIST


Today you might be in a situation where you have no peace of mind at all in your life. You don’t like the path that you are going on in your life now. You don’t have happiness in your heart because nothing you expected is happening in your life. You are just living for the sake of living. You might have lost all the interest to live. Do not get discouraged. The God who has created you is promising you that He will give you rest.

“Come to Me, all you who labor and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” – Matthew 11:28

My dear friends, Jesus Christ will give you His peace and rest. It’s enough that you have carried your burden and gone weary. Leave the burdens of your heart and mind at God’s feet for He will give you rest. So far life might not have brought much happiness you have longed for. Look unto Jesus Christ. He will turn all your grief into joy and He will give you happiness that you are longing for.

Your sins might have brought guilt in your life; you might be facing problems in your studies; you might not have got the job that you have longed for; you might be waiting so many years for a particular blessing to happen; you might have problems in your family life and relationships; you might have lost peace in your heart because of the people around you. Do not lose hope. Jesus Christ is there for you. Look to Him and surely He will turn the situations of your life for good and He will give you rest and peace.

I came to know the life of a particular person who works in my work place. When she was doing her Bachelor Science (Bsc) degree her father told her that only if she gets good marks in her degree course he will make her to study Master of Science (Msc) degree. She kept on praying to God for good marks and by God’s grace she scored more than 80% in her Bsc degree. She was so happy and she got admitted to Msc degree in a good college.

She was living her life happily. But a tragedy soon struck her family. Her sister who is of very young age whom she loved very much died in an unexpected way. Her whole family was shattered. She doesn’t know what to do. Soon she returned to her college to continue her course but she could not concentrate on her studies for she lost her peace and there was no rest in her mind. Her mind was filled with so many questions for which she could not find an answer at all.

Soon her mental state became worse and she could not continue her studies. So she discontinued her studies in the mid way and she returned home. Her family members could not do anything to help her to come back to the normal state. The money that her father paid for her master’s degree course also was lost.

She lost her peace and hope about her future. She decided to look to Jesus Christ for help. She believed that God alone can change the situation of her life. So she poured all the burdens of her heart in God’s feet and decided to apply for Msc course again in another college.

She applied to a famous college in her city. A recommendation was preferred to get admission in that college. She had none but Jesus Christ. She kept on praying and one fine morning, God spoke to her saying, “You got selected”. On the same day she got her admission letter and she was so surprised to know that she got selected without any recommendation at all.

Soon she joined that college. After few days she came to know that another girl who is studying in the class also has the same name she has. The name was name and initials also were same. That girl had a recommendation from a higher official who works in that college. That particular higher official called his office staff and told her name and asked him to send the admission letter to that girl. The office staff went to search the address from the list of applicants but he was confused as he saw two similar names.

At the same moment, God directed his heart to choose her name instead of that girl’s name and he had sent the admission letter to her. By this way, God did a miracle in her life providing her a peaceful and rest filled mind. At one moment, God worked a miracle for her and she got blessed. The same girl who struggled to finish her Msc degree course and discontinued in half way was blessed by God in such a way that she hold a doctorate (Ph.D) degree today.

Jesus Christ can do the same miracle to you today. He will not let your family life to break. He will not let you fail in your course. He will not let someone to stop your promotion. He will not let your foot to slip.

Jesus Christ will give you His peace and you will be rested in His bosom. Pour out all your burdens to Him.

“I will give you my peace and rest. I will wipe away all your tears. In my time, I will bless you and raise you. My dear child, do not lose your heart for I am your Father and I will not leave you comfortless. Surely I will bless you and fill your life with joy and happiness. You will live a life of blessing” says Jesus Christ to you.

So my dear friends do not worry about your life. God will surely do a miracle and He will give you His rest. God bless you.
