How do you react when you get bad news, or something bad happens to you? Do you cry out, "why?" Or "why me?" Do you turn to substances? Alcohol or other stimulants? Or do you just try and fight your way through it or out of it. "I can do this." "I don't need any ones help." Well my friends, that is the wrong way to go about it.
Jesus wants us to cry out to Him! He is all the help that we need.
Psalm 18:6 The Message
6 A hostile world! I call to God, I cry to God to help me. From his palace he hears my call; my cry brings me right into his presence— a private audience!
What an audience that is! The Creator of the universe hearing our cries to Him. He hears us when we cry out in distress over a serious health diagnosis. Cry over the loss of a loved one. A relationship on the verge of ending. Job loss. No money for bills or food. Car troubles. The list is endless.
You know who is not endless? Jesus!
He is the same yesterday, today & tomorrow.
Hebrews 13:8 New Living Translation
8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever
Nothing can take away God's love from us. He loves unconditionally. All the time!
Romans 8:35 Living Bible
35 Who then can ever keep Christ’s love from us? When we have trouble or calamity, when we are hunted down or destroyed, is it because he doesn’t love us anymore? And if we are hungry or penniless or in danger or threatened with death, has God deserted us?
So what do you need to 'Cry Out To Jesus' about today?
Like the song by the band Third Day says:
*There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary. Love for a broken heart. Help to break addictions. He provides mercy and healing.*
Jesus will help with every kind of problem or issue that we will ever face. We cannot do it with our own strength.
We just need to cry out to Him!
God bless!
