2 Corinthians 4:8-9 We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.
Despair unfortunately affects all human beings, including you. About-me , I too have experienced the sadness and hopelessness at times, that despair and the feelings of hopeless that these feelings can bring.
FAITH:
As a Christian believer in the Lord Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior, I know first hand the power that hope and faith can have in your seemingly hopeless and helpless situation.
But you need to have a personal relationship first with Jesus Christ Himself, the Lord of All, before you can experience the transformational power that only God Himself can provide, in helping you overcome your despair, fear , and sadness in your life.
It doesn’t matter what trials and tribulations you are experiencing in life, God is bigger than your biggest hopeless and helpless situation, providing your put your trust and faith in Him. God does care for and all of God’s children. Pray to God and ask Him how to meditate unto Him.
If everything else you have tried has not worked, you owe it to yourself and to your eventual eternal destination to give God a chance. Almighty God is much Bigger and Stronger than your biggest helpless and hopeless situation that you are experiencing at the moment. As an after thought, if you ever want to know the secret in how to succeed , and how to be happy in life, put God first in your life.
POSITIVE ATTITUDE:
It is quite common knowledge as medical fact, that you are what you eat. If you eat junky, non-nutritional healthy food, you are more pre-disposed to cardio-vascular disease, including some cancers, just for not adhering to sound food choices for optimal nutritional health. If you ever want to succeed in your healthy weight loss goals in life, first starts with healthy eating, because you are what you eat.
However, the same is even more true with what you think in life. If you are always thinking of negative, destructive, unhealthy, and might I add, un-Godly thoughts in life, then you will never really accomplish much at all in your life; amounting to nothing but dismal failures in your efforts.
You need to learn to develop a healthy positive attitude , and a healthy positive thinking mindset to go along. Because you are what you think, whether you believe it or not.
Something to think about.....
Share Your Burdens of Helpless and Hopeless with a Godly Person
Many times during our struggles and despair of hopelessness, we sometimes exaggerate that things are far more worse than they really are, a distorted reality. Please hear what I am saying here, I am not minimizing what you are going through, only to sit down and reflect upon your entire situation, that maybe your hopeless situation is really not as hopeless as you once thought.
Sometimes, maybe all you need are a fresh set of eyes , in seeking the Godly wisdom and advise of someone with whom you look up and can trust in sharing your situation. Everyone one of us have successful relationships , a close friend, someone you can confide in completely with self confidence , in pouring out your feelings of despair.
Develop the self discipline , the determination , and the self confidence in seeking out such people in your inner circle of friendship and support. Maybe your situation is not as bleak as you may think, and there may already exist as solution to your despair, but is clouded due to your negative gloom and doom thinking
Remember, you and you alone hold the keys to your emotional outlook in life.
But sometimes too, God allows circumstances, and events good, bad and/or indifferent to come into our lives.
God allows these events in order to get our attention-to teach us an invaluable life lesson, that will lead to real spiritual growth , and maturity which yields character development in your life.
What life lessons is God teaching you now, at this very moment? And even more importantly, will you become a better and much wiser person because of it?
Only you can answer these questions, because only you hold the keys to these important life questions.
Your Ability is only limited by your inability to take Action….. Your life is waiting.
