What Has My Life Become

I think about what my life has become… It seems like there’s so much that’s undone! There are many things that I wanted to achieve. But much of what I wanted, I haven’t received! There were many goals I wanted to meet. But I feel like a failure! My life isn’t complete! The things that I thought would bring happiness, Have instead, left me feeling much “emptiness.” I read, “What profits a man… If he loses his soul?” I’ve wondered; “which direction am I going to go?” There’s many questions that remain unanswered. It’s almost like having a “lingering cancer.” I opened up the Bible and begin to read it. As I read more, I realized how much I need it! I read about passages like Romans and John… And knew that it’s in Jesus, where my life belongs! He brings hope, where others have failed me! He brings comfort and hope that surround me! He brings power and healing in his wings! He’s my sold rock and provides everything! It’s no secret the awesome miracles he can do! He’s here right now! And is waiting for YOU! By Jim Pemberton
