I have been preoccupied with a problem on my website since early January. Mainly because most of the so-called “fix it” sites tell me there is nothing wrong but I know there is. Anyway, my focus today is how many of us are trapped. Some of us by our feelings and some because of their fame and fortune. Trapped by being unable to do the things that others can and many take for granted. Even friends don’t notice that there are limitations to our lives, particularly my life.

I’m not going to begin this as a “pity party” and I know it sounds that way but the limitations that we all have tend to keep us in bondage…sort of. These limitations are because of our beliefs, whether in Jesus or the fulfillment of the prophecies in God’s Word that we see happening all around us today but we shouldn’t be anxious about these things. We can do nothing to change any of them, and they will happen anyway because God has ordained that they will.

Our society, especially in America, has always been focused on individuality. The lone cowboy or the policeman/woman who saves the day. The soldier who saves his platoon from a really bad situation. All of these are heroes in my opinion and they all deserve credit for what they have done but each of us is not enough in most instances. Yes, these brave people have been able to do things that many of us couldn’t do but God gave them the bravery to accomplish those tasks. We are not able to meet every situation on our own because if God is your Savior you are not alone…ever. He is always there with you giving you strength and the courage to get through whatever life throws at you.

God is walking with you every day if you are a Christian, and He is with you during the good days and the bad ones. If you don’t know Jesus as your Savior then you need to seek Him out to be your Savior. Search the Bible for Him. In the New Testament, He completes His mission and gives each of us a way to be adopted into God’s family. Why do I say that all of us need Him? Because it is true. If you have ever felt an emptiness in your life, even in yourself, that you couldn’t explain and have ever wondered how to fill that spot…Jesus is the only way to fill it. God placed a longing in each of us and it isn’t for people or sex or drugs or anything the world has to offer. It can only be filled by Jesus Christ. Seek Him before something bad happens because none of us know when our last day on Earth is.
