Are You Breathing?

Proverbs 3:5-6 - “Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Do not depend on your own understanding. In all your ways remember Him. Then He will make your paths smooth and straight.”

Romans 8:17 - “As His children, we will receive all that He has for us. We will share what Christ receives. But we must share in His sufferings if we want to share in His glory.”

Today’s Helpful Thought: Without hope, we would have a hard time in the rest of life. Hope is when we know that better things are coming; that the bad things won’t always be there and Jesus will always be with us. Without knowing that, we wouldn’t know what to do, we wouldn’t be strong and we wouldn’t be able to know what we really want. But thankfully, we always have hope; we can always know that life will get better - and that is because of Jesus! Jesus is always there for us. The Bible says that as long as we are breathing, we can know that Jesus will be with us and that He can make things better. Are you breathing? Than you can know that Jesus has good things for You! 

Today’s Prayer: Dear God, You are the One I want to make the decisions in my life! Please help me to be strong because of You today and tomorrow and the next day. When I ask You for help and when I know that I always need You in my life, You make me strong. Jesus, You are the One who makes sure that life gets better and that bad things don’t stay forever. Jesus, You are Who I want the most. You are the most important part of my life and why I am able to live. You are why I want to live. I get to breathe because of You. Thank You that every breath is Your reminder to me that life gets better and that You are with me no matter what! Thank You for listening when we talk!
