Yes that’s right, it’s God. Maybe you have heard it a hundred times, but it is still true and His power and love are still FAR greater than any problem you are facing. In fact He knows all about it and wants to help you… if YOU will let Him. Having the, “God Card” in your internal wallet will give you access to freedom from life’s burdens and debt. Jesus says in Matthew 11, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” The Bible has all the answers on managing life’s issues. The Holy Spirit, (Who is God) inhabits God’s people, gives them peace and empowers and directs them. On top of that, God your Father has a special plan for YOUR life and wants only the VERY BEST for you. You have the full support of the creator of the universe, but you have to fill out the application. Interested?
Isn’t now the time to be set free? Jesus has already paid the price of your debt to God and if you allow Him, will help you handle everything else. Start praying to God. If you are truly sorry for the, (sins) things you have done against Him, then tell Him so and ask Him to forgive you. He will! Forever! Give your life to Him, and ask Him to come in and take control. If you are truly born again, (See John chap. 3) then your life will be changed for the best and you will see and experience things in a new and exciting way. One swipe of, “The God card” can make all the difference. So, “What’s in YOUR wallet?” Something to think about…
“It’s time to see how clearly you can think,” the teacher said to his class. “Now, listen carefully, and think about what I’m saying. I’m thinking of a person who has the same mother and father as I have. But this person is not my brother and not my sister. Who is it?” The kids in the class furrowed their brows, scratched their heads, and otherwise showed how hard they were thinking. But no one came up with the right answer. When everyone in the class had given up, the teacher announced, “The person is me.” Little Jeffrey beamed at learning the answer. “That’s a good one,” he said to himself. “I’ll have to try that on Mom and Dad.” At dinner that night, little Jeffrey repeated the riddle to his parents. “I’m thinking of a person who has the same mother and father as I have,” he said. “But this person isn’t my brother and isn’t my sister. Who is it?” His parents furrowed their brows, scratched their heads, and otherwise pretended that they were thinking hard. Then they both said, “I give up. Who is it?” “It’s my teacher!” Jeffrey said.
