(Luke 10:38-42)
As Jesus and His disciples went on their way, He came to a village where a woman named Martha welcomed Him in her home. She had a sister named Mary, who sat down at the feet of the Lord and listened to His teaching.
Martha was upset over all the work she had to do so she came to Him and asked, "Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do all the work by myself? Tell her to come and to help me!"
But the Lord answered her "Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled over so many things, but just one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the right thing, and it will not be taken away from her."
(To listen and to know more about God is the one thing that we needed which can never be taken away)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
My friend, our Lord wanted to tell you His word, to know Him and to listen for His words of promise and believe on Him. Because that how much that He loves you.
When our friend whom they should put their trust on us, didn't believe on any words that we said is hurting enough. But what about when we worked and sacrificed so hard for our love ones, yet they don't even notice and appreciate it, it squeezes the heart with so much pain. Rubbing the pain some more, when these love ones of ours had hurt us, didn't understand our hardships, didn't even called to talk to us, didn't even trust us and worst, never even believed on us, aren't that so painful?
So imagine the pain of our Lord when His children didn't trust Him enough. When He didn't even stop working on us yet we never even notice nor appreciate it. When we don't understand His love on us, when we never called on Him to talk to Him to ask for our needs and to thank Him, when we didn't trust Him enough and when we never even believe on His promise. We can always break our promises to anyone and to our Lord, but He can never break His promise on His children.
Is there something to doubt on the power of our God?
We praise our Lord, because He amazes us with His power and His kindness. God always wanted to amaze you. Yet how can He amaze us when we never notice and when we never even showed any appreciation for every single thing that He worked on our lives just to make us happy and to remember Him? But He can endure it all. He can endure all the pain. Because that is how much that He loves you. Even you already lose your faith and your hope to your life that He gave you and even when you don't have faith and hope to God, He will never loses His faith and His hope on His people, on His children, ON YOU. That one day, you can also see Him in your life. That one day, you can also appreciate Him. For God will never stop on working on His children. That is how much that He loves you. And His love will never fail.
For God chose to suffer and die on the hands that He loves most.
When God cares for all things that He created, He cares for you above all things. God suffered and carried the cross for us sinners that caused Him so much pain and suffering, not for His angels who worshiped Him. Did we even think of that? Angels have their own freewill too like ours. But when these angels sinned upon our Lord, He can never forgive them. There is no forgiveness for His fallen angels. They will suffer and they will perish. That is why these fallen angels, or shall I call them demons, are in our lives right now to get us. They will pull us down to be punished, to suffer and perish like them. When can we even realize that we are not for this world? When can we realize that we are for God? Aren't we proud of ourselves that God loves sinners and they are more worthy to die for than any things that He created?
"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." -Romans 8:38-39
God made you human so you can always ask for His forgiveness with your sincere and humble heart and He will always forgive you. God made you human so you can know Him more. That is how much that He loves you. He is the One who created you. He is the only who can understands you. God made you weak, so He may give you strength. God made you feel pain, so He may heal you. He wanted you to need things, so you will need Him to provide for you. He wanted you to find and feel love, because He wants you too seek for His love. Because He is the only One who can truly loves you more than any other people on this world, the only One who can forgives you and the only One who can truly understands you. God gave all the things and will keep on giving things for our enjoyment. Even this life that He gave us, He can take it if He wanted to. But I am asking you now, so what if this world leaves us alone? You were not an outcast. NEVER. For the Lord, is with you ALL THE TIME. He created YOU to be on His HIS KINGDOM. All He wants is to be with YOU.
"Now if that us the way God clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today and thrown into an oven tomorrow, won't He clothe you much better - why do you have so little faith?" -Matthew 6:30
"Love the Lord your God with all you heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength." -Mark 12:30
"Trust on Him with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;"
-Proverbs 3:5
So you can:
"Cast you cares on the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall." -Psalm 55:22
"Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you." -1 Peter 5:7
For God said:
"Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you." -Hebrew 13:5
He is calling you to:
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
-Matthew 11:28
My friends please rest your mind and trust on Him. He knows that you are already weary. Please let all your heavy burden of doubts, fear, anger, pain, sufferings and needs put to God. Put all you hopes, your dreams and your life on Him. Call Him. Do everything that you can, then trust Him with all your heart. He will be more than be so happy to take this all way from you. All your hard work will never be in vain and will be rewarded. All He ever wanted for you is to feel that He is always beside you and He is loving you right now and always. He will take care of you and everything for you. Let Him work for you. So you may rest your mind, your heart and your spirit.
In Jesus name, Amen...
