I do not know everything. However, I know I know somethings. It is my sincere desire to share some of my wisdom in order for people to learn how to manage their depression, anxiety, pain, suffering, angst, and turmoil.
In this article I will use two bible verses from Isaiah in order to emphasize the reality that we are all in disobedience of God and because of this reality we are under the wrath of God. I know many of us believe we are okay because we do not murder or rape. However, in reality all of us sneer at our neighbors if not fight with our neighbor. Our crazy driving endangers the lives of all our neighbors. Therefore, not one of us can say we are without sin.
In the Old Testament Israel was rather disobedient of God. Today, they do not believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah. Many of us do not believe in God and practice sin. In fact, we are like the Israelis God mentions in the following bible verses.
Isaiah 2 states, “Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O
earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.” Isaiah4 declares, “ Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.”
In this modern world most people have been brainwashed into having an automatic angry reaction when some one tries to talk to them about God. Satan wants to keep as many people as possible away from God. This enemy uses fear and confidence to interfere in God’s attempts at reaching people. People are afraid of being judged by others and they fear that they will have to give up something they do not want to in order to please God. Many believe they will be fine if they keep living without God.
People should see God as love. Because, he loves us-his children-He wants us to have a good life. The way to have a good life is to follow the instructions of God.
I have never seen the people of the world so agitated. Even VIPs who know that they have to mind their manners are ranting and raving.
If they just took some time to contemplate God, they would realize that the loving God can lead them out of their pain and suffering. Most will doubt, cling to a romantic partner for escape from solace, and them spend years hiding from fear with unnecessary purchases and other bad behaviors.
God lets us see how a life of simplicity where we focus on the good in life is a better strategy. Today, most of us are negative. We have this vision of life as horrible monster. There are areas of life that are harsh. However, our mental environment is the one we create. We decide if we want to suffer from depression and anxiety.
We can very easily listen to fun and nourishing christian music. In addition, we can read literature that champions life. Our friends and family members can be men and women of peace who have no animosity for their neighbors and live healthy lives.
When husbands and wives feel self conscious and awkward around each other it could be do that they are not getting from life what they need. Most of the time people feel unfulfilled because they have forgotten how to have fun and enjoy life.
We know how to occupy time. However, we have forgotten how to have fun. Modern day hysteria is from depression, which comes from not knowing how to live pleasant enjoyable healthy lives. Everyone knows how to play with their smart phones. However, that is not living.
I am constantly surprised by all the pain and suffering I see in the world. People with little financial resources desperately trying to create a life. There are also many others hiding from the fear of not having the life other people think they should have.
I know God is real. I know God is a loving God who wants us to have an abundant life. Even today in a harsh and chaotic world we can have friends, family, peace, love, and joy.
The secret is the pure righteous caring love of God. He does not want to see any of us hurt. This is why He keeps reminding us of the need for human connections. It is possible to be a successful parent. It is possible to have a happy marriage. It is possible to manage our emotions and be free of pain and suffering.
When we think of God we should think of love. We should think of a love that can put our lives in order and a life where we can be at peace.
