WE HAVE SOMEONE TO BELIEVE IN
There was a story that aired on the news on Monday that this man shot his wife mother in law and 3 sons 7, 12 & 19 the man was a Harvard graduate with his MBA in Finance worked for top 500 fortune companies as a CFO and never had any type of emotional or mental history. He killed his family because he was stressed financially and burdened with the cares of life, he could not bare it and decided the best for him and his family was to die. When I heard the news I was saddened in my heart. Yes, we are all going through financial struggles right now. There was times where I thought how are we going to do this or pay that but my family and I have someone to believe in "JESUS"! We have hope and all we have to do is get on our knees everyday to keep our levels of faith up! Monday night was youth prayer and my husband said Nicole lets go with the boys today so I called up my mother in law and she wanted to go as well. We were in the car and the subject came up about how the economy was going down and what are people going to do when there is no money left or food my boys that are 13, 15, 16 and my niece Megan who is 13 were asking and seemed worried my mother in law mentioned it was going to get worse and many stories similiar to the one of the man killing his family are going to occur. I was hurt on how I can hear in their voices the concerns of life and they are all only teens. I turned around and all I could say was YOU BE GRATEFUL THAT WE ARE A CHOSEN FAMILY OF GOD! We have someone to believe in we have someone that we can take our needs to and he will provide, we have someone that we can cry to and in need he will comfort us and love us and show us the way! I thought my God if that man only knew about You had You in his life he would have not gotten to the point of death! I know that sometimes our teens or adults in general may think wow living for God is so hard you have to give this up and that and were always in church etc..........All I can say is TRUST ME ITS GONNA BE WORTH IT ALL THAT BEAUTIFUL HAPPY DAY! We got to Pastor Clarks church where my brother in law and sister in law are the youth pastors and the Holy Ghost fell in that youth service and the prayers that went up to God and the testimonies was so good. It gave my kids the strenth they needed till the next church service. In this day and age we need to find ourselves in church on our knees and out witnessing to the lost that need the hope and belief we have! Not everyone has someone to believe in I am glad that we do! JESUS CHRIST!
