IS LIFE A STRUGGLE? RELAX, GOD HAS A PLAN FOR YOU!

There are times in life when it is just toooooo much. You know what I mean? To much week and not enough paycheck? More things to do than time to do them? It's hard to be thankful for the lot you have in life?

Don't feel all alone and lost, there are many facing the same difficulty. God cares -- He really does! That's why He sent Jesus and the Holy Spirit, gave us all guardian angels and above all gave us His Word, the Bible.


The Bible is filled with caring comments because God wants us to know not only that He cares, but that He has made a way for us to get through it all.

For example, if you have no money and you have heard that you have to plant seed in order to get a harvest, take heart from this Scripture:

"As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness." 2 Corinthians 9:8-9 KJV.

Just because you haven't experienced this yet, doesn't mean you can't or that God won't bring it to you. On the contrary, He intends to do this for all that believe on Him and call on His name.

What will He do? First, He spreads good things to the poor. Even in the toughest times, God shows up for those who call on Him. Just be patient. He will meet your needs in His time and His time is always on time.

A second thing God does is to supply seed for you to sow. Don't have any seed? Don't worry, He will supply. And in addition, He will provide bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown.

A little secret here, you must plant the seed to get a harvest. If you eat the seed - no harvest. If you spend the seed - no harvest. If you give the seed away - no harvest. You must plant the seed to get a harvest. When you do He will increase the fruits of your right deeds. You will get more with the right attitude doing the right thing. That is God's promise. It is the way He works.

So if you want to be 'enriched in everything to all bountifulness' (vs. 10a), then trust Him, act on what He provides and expect a miracle.

The tough times will pass. The hard times will get easier. The 'not enough' times will become an abundance.

How do I know? His Word says so and I have tested it for over 40 years - it works and God is ever faithful.

Try it - you might like it! GO WITH GOD!
