@3:47 AM
Sometimes I feel so much for the people around me, through reading their thoughts on their blogs. It just strikes me as I was visiting quite a few blogs that its always the simplest things that hurts people the most. And my heart really goes out to them, something in me screams out "But Jesus is the answer! If only you would give Him a chance!". Many times, we overlook the people around us and may even label their problems as childish, but I was reminded of something a wise man once said to me, that if something matters enough to hurt someone, then it matters enough to be looked into. I believe God is moving me to not just be a minister to those who are facing giant issues in life, but I need to love those who may seem perfectly normal, smiley, happy; because beneath those facades may lie deeper hurts that have been buried, and the pain never released. I want to see the people around me being the happiest people, where out of them truly stems pure joy.
I was telling someone, that
the bad in life happens to mould us, but the good comes in to encourage us. May life's little pots of joy at those opportunate moments serve to remind us that God is good, and He always will be there to lift us up.
