Christian Encouragement for those who are Burdoned

There is somebody who needs to read this today. Are you burdened with life? Are you burdened with grief?

Health problems? Financial problems? Relationship problems?

Whatever you have going on in your life - you have a Savior who adores you. He loves you. He gave it all for you - personally. There is no problem too big that He cannot fix.

We've all been there.

My prayers are that you will all reach out to the One who loved you first (1 John 4:19). That you will cast all of your cares to Him (1 Peter 5:7). And that you reach out for the Peace that only He can give (John 14:27)

Fear not - He is with you always!

Hebrews 13:6

Please reach out to Him - you are loved!

Don't give up!

For those of you who do not have that peace - here is how you can.

These are dark times and I’m seeing it more and more everyday traveling for work, encountering folks needing help and looking for answers struggling not just with events happening but increasingly encountering spiritual warfare.

“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. “ - John 16:33

Our Lord reminds us to keep watch.

“And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.” - Luke 21:34

[Cronos]

Jesus teaches that salvation involves repentance, as He calls sinners to turn from their ways (Luke 13:3, “Unless you repent, you will all likewise perish”). He commands baptism for the forgiveness of sins and entry into His kingdom (Mark 16:16, “Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved”). Partaking in His Body through the Eucharist is essential, as He declares, “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life” (John 6:54). Additionally, Jesus emphasizes doing good to the least of our brothers and enduring in faith to the end for salvation (Matthew 25:40, “Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me”; Matthew 24:13, “The one who endures to the end will be saved”).

I’m not worried about anything. World War Three? Not worried. I don’t live in fear and worry. Jesus taught that believers should not be consumed by anxiety, especially regarding the future and the end times. A lot of freepers need to take Jesus advice. Stop worrying about Ukraine and Russia.

[Delta 21]

Amen.

The Christ Jesus is the way.

Jesus said it himself in John 14, 6: "I am the way. The truth, and life. No one comes to the Father, except through Me.

Holy Spirit please rain down a bit of grace on all these Freepers. We all need it more than we think. tnx RWC
