The Path of Life

Sometimes life seems like its all a downhill road, like nothing you do makes a difference in the outcome of your life. At times I have felt like a ship lost in the sea needing a lighthouse to shine a light and rescue me. One night I felt like I couldn't go on for another second, it was then that I decided to ask God for help. I said "God, if you are really real and really out there please help me!" Crying as if it were my last moment alive I felt a sudden warmth surround me, I felt assurance like what we seek from our parents when we are young and need to be comforted. I knew it was God, he made it real to me. I know now that life can seem unfair at times and the road isn't always covered with roses, there is not always an obvious sign of which direction you should go. When it feels like you want to give up, don't. Cry out to God like you would your mommy or daddy when your a kid and scared, even if you don't really know for sure if he exists, once you do that you will know for sure. Jesus healed my heart, my life is nowhere near perfect but at least I know I don't have to walk this path of life alone, God carries me through the rough patches and walks besides me when I am on more stable ground. If you want a change in your life and never want to feel alone again ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart and live in you and show you his love. The thing about Jesus is that unlike any other person in this world, he will never leave you or back stab you or hate you for what you have done or said. He just forgives you and fills you with his love. The path of life can be uncertain but the road you choose to walk can be made easier with Jesus Christ walking beside you along the way.
