My life is perfect... hahahhaa... Ok, let's be real. My life is not perfect. I have hardships, problems, issues, all of the above, and your life probably isn't perfect either. But the thing is we want it to be. We want our lives to be carefree, ideal, and we're looking for that solution. Jesus, sometimes becomes that solution. When we are so down, and at our lowest, but we find out that Jesus saves us out of that, we are glad. Finally we get the carefree, perfect life... WRONG!!!!
Jesus never promised us a life without problems, He actually gave us a heads-up in Mathew 16 verse 33:
... In the world you will have tribulation; ...He said that we WILL have problems. Just because we accepted Christ doesn't mean we get a carefree life, but there is more to that verse.
These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace... I have overcome the world.He has overcome this world, with all its problems, issues, trials, tribulations, hardships, all the above. That means that in this life of ours, when we accept Christ, we have the ultimate Guide. He has overcome this world and everything that comes with it. Our lives' problems are easy peasy for someone like Him. He knows every step, every turn, every nook and cranny to bring us through this life. Don't be afraid to hand your life to Him because God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). If I may, I want to say that our lives are perfect with Jesus because when we lay our problems down at His feet, He takes care of them. Our problems may be BIG, but our God is BIGGER.
