If you ask any individual what they desire more than anything in life , I bet their answer will be to live in peace and serenity . We all strive to achieve the perfect harmony in our life . Sometimes , we even pretend that we have it .
Why is it so difficult to achieve ? I believe because we are looking for instant happiness . A little pill that can transform our dreary , broken heart into an instant rose colored glasses outlook . That's why new age religion is so appealing to people . . . . instant gratification .
I can remember my mentor relating how she first accepted Christ . In her darkest hour , she ran out into the street in the middle of the night crying to God to help her somehow if He truly was there . The same week , she received in the mail an invite to our Church .
The moment she cried out to Him , God didn't snap His fingers and her life became instant happiness , but He did provide her with His protection and strength towards that goal . Now , almost seven years later , God is still providing her with the tools she needs to overcome any obstacles in her life .
Peace and harmony isn't something we can get for free , we have to do the work . If we want to move forward , free from all the chains that bind us , we have to clean out that closet first . All we have to do is cry out to the Lord , " HELP US " , and let Him equip us with what we need to live in peace and serenity .
Have a Blessed day everyone .
