Got Jesus?

Sometimes people get mad at God for not "answering their prayers." Someone once said you sometimes don't hear the answer but feel a pull in a certain direction to where God wants you to go. But again you have to (excuse me for being straight forward here) Shut up and listen. God is speaking to you but your just not quiet long enough to hear what he has to say!

Isaiah 40:27-31
O Israel, how can you say the Lord does not see your troubles? How can you say God refuses to hear your case? Have you never heard or understood? Don't you know that the Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth? He never grows faint or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding. He gives power to those who are tired and worn out; he offers strength to the weak. Even youths will become exhausted, and young men will give up. But those who wait on the Lord will find new strength. They will fly high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.

It's like that song "He is my strength when I am weak. He is the treasure that I seek. He is my all in all." He is our all in all!
Think about it, how many times before you act upon something you do, do you console God? Ask him if this is his will for you to do this?
Not many can say that is what they do. But the bible says you should.
Now lets say you ask God for an answer and you don't get what you want to hear. You think what he wants will be to hard for you to do.

In Mark 5:36 the bible says
But Jesus ignored their comments and said to Jairus, "Don't be afraid. Just trust me."

Jesus want's you to trust him. Remember his Holy Spirit is with you always! He will not fail you. He will give you rest for your soul no matter what the problem is! You have to remember he helps you but you must give him all your burdens to see full results! Trust him completely and live a life for him! Be like Christ!

Matthew 11:28-30
Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Lem me teach you, because I am humble and gentle, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke fits perfectly, and the burden I give you is light."

Your soul is your mind. Jesus gives you peace of mind. All you have to do is confess your sin, repent meaning turn away from, and give all your burdens unto him! Tell him you give him your all! He died for you so that you may be forgiven and have everlasting life! That is more than enough evidence to prove he cares!
So the next time someone makes you mad, or you feel like you have too much on your plate, think to yourself "Got Jesus?"
