WHEN LIFE DOESN'T MAKE SENSE

'...for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.' - Hebrews 13 vs 5

Hello Dearly Beloved in the LORD Jesus Christ. I trust the LORD has been Gracious to you and you have been walking in the Joy of the LORD. This is just a short piece of exhortation aimed at putting hope and relief in the heart of someone who might have despaired of life, and doesn't see any sense living. I'd encourage you to share this teaching with someone else, maybe by sharing it on your social media networks by using the share buttons below. God Bless You. AMEN.

Someone asked a question, he said, 'Must everyone be forced to live? What if I don't wanna live anymore? Can't God just understand this and take my life?' What a question. Obviously this fellow must have experienced struggles with his life, maybe no progress, maybe stagnation, maybe rejection by everyone he seems to know, maybe reoccurring sickness, maybe poverty; just name it, these might have been his experience in life, and he so frustrated and tired, Oooo life has lost sense to him. What do one do in such times?  Now let's see from the Scripture what three (2) men did when they were in such circumstance. The first is the King David who was also a Prophet;

'Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. 

O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.' - Psalm 42 vs 5 - 6 {KING JAMES VERSION}

You see, David was in a state where he despaired of life, he was troubled, just like life might have lost sense to you. But look what he said by the Spirit, he said, I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar. He was in fears and griefs in another land, not his own land, and he says he will remember God from there. This signifies that we are to remember GOD, especially HIS promises to us in the midst of our griefs. Let's see the lamentation of the Prophet Jonah from the belly of the fish;
'When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.' - Jonah 2 vs 7 {KJV}

You see that? When his soul fainted within him, when he was frustrated and couldn't go on, he didn't think of suicide as the next remedy, he remembered the LORD. Hear this, When you are frustrated with life, remember God's promise towards you. - Selah. Our opening scripture is one beautiful promise God has made to us which should always come to your mind, HE said HE will never leave you nor forsake you. Waow. Now it's nice and important you know that one thing the scripture does to us is that it comforts us. We see that hidden in Romans 15 vs 4;

'For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.' - {KJV}
You see that, it depicts that through comfort of scriptures we have hope.

In despair times, as you remember this promise, you are comforted and encouraged by the Holy Ghost to go on. That's hope, the hope talked about. And in no distance time, you're gonna have a testimony. AMEN.

God Bless You.- Jenning U. Angel
