“...For I will turn their mourning to joy, Will comfort them, And
make them rejoice rather than sorrow.” – Jeremiah 31:13
Today you might be
going through tough times with heart full of sorrow as there was no one to
comfort you. You might feel like you will lose everything and you will be put
to shame. Do not get discouraged.
Jesus Christ is
promising you today that He will turn your mourning to joy. He will comfort you
and fill you with His joy. Your days of mourning will end. You will be filled
with God’s peace and joy.
In the year 2010 my
mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. She is a blessing that God has given us.
We treasure her advices and prayers a lot. But on those days sorrow filled our
hearts and we could not even smile at others. One side we kept our hope in God
and prayed a lot and on the other side we thought she might die.
Our relatives and well
wishers could not comfort us. With heavy heart we went for surgery. Jesus
Christ gave His grace to the doctors to perform the surgery. The surgery was
success and my mom was confronted with radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment.
We know that she could
not even bear a simple head ache. So we wondered how she will bear the pain of
chemotherapy. My mom pleaded to God to keep her alive so that she can see my
marriage.
Jesus Christ promised
her that He will be with her throughout the treatment. As He promised, He had
never left us alone. He comforted us and He gave His strength to my mom to go
through all kinds of treatments. After one year when doctors checked my mom
they found that she was completely fine.
We were so happy and
rejoicing. We thanked God for He had turned all our sorrows into joy. My mom’s
health was stable and soon I got married. My mom was so happy to attend my
marriage.
Years passed by.
Recently few weeks ago, suddenly my mom got terribly ill. No doctors could
actually find a reason for her weakness. As days passed she could not stand at all.
As a family we pleaded to God to give her life. But as my mom had completed all
her duties, she was ready to die because she knows for sure that she will go to
Heaven.
We also know that she
will go to Heaven because even in simple things she led a righteous life. But
yet we loved her a lot and we want her to live along with our dad to pray for
us and our children.
With so much of sorrow
we admitted her in a hospital but yet her health was not completely alright. As
our hearts were filled with fear, we prayed a lot.
Jesus Christ heard her
prayers and He healed her completely. Few days back she went for a complete
check up in the hospital where she got treated for cancer and doctors told us
that my mother was completely fine and there are no signs of any disease within
her body.
Jesus Christ turned
our sorrows into joy. He had put an end to our mourning. Even today He is
leading us with His peace and joy.
My dear young friends,
Jesus Christ will do the same in your life. Today the situation may be
different. You might have lost all hopes about your future. There might be no
signs of help from anyone. Do not fear. Jesus Christ will help you. He will be
your comfort and here after you will only rejoice. There will not be any more
sorrows in your life. Your life will be filled with God’s peace. Your family
life will be taken care by God and all that belongs to you will be protected by
God. You will live happily. God bless you.
