"Is JESUS CHRIST Lord 
in and of Your Life?"

     In this life My beloved, you are going to have both good and bad times, as well as times of joy and times of sadness. Now of course there will be people who will have more of one than the other in this life, but that too is just the way life tends to be on this side. There is one thing that I will say of course, and that is when times are bad, sad, and/or unpleasant in some way, one can always decide to whine, gripe, complain, and just feel as if the world hates you and is against you, or you can learn to make the best of it and take it all in stride. You can also realize that certain things are just a part of life and that much of it is out of your control anyway. Even when it seems that other people might have it better than you do right now, not everything has to remain that way. There are so many people living with hate, anger, disappointment, jealousy, and such, all because someone else seems to be living a better life than they are, and oh how petty and sad for those who are living with such emotions.
     Okay now, from this moment on, you can decide to truly make JESUS CHRIST Lord of your life or keep on going the way you have been. When JESUS CHRIST is Lord of your life, you place everything in His hands and trust Him to do whatever He will with your life. There is no more concern about good, bad, happiness, or sadness because you will have placed your trust in JESUS to do what He sees best in and for your life. You cannot imagine how great it will feel to relax and just let go, allowing The Lord JESUS to take over the reins of your life so to speak. Remember these words in Matthew 11:29-30, (29) Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. (30) For My yoke is easy and My burden is light. Oh, I realize that it will be a difficult thing for so many of you to do, because you have been so used to trying to handle and mess up everything yourself, even though you say that JESUS CHRIST is your Lord and Savior already. Sure, one of those might be true but not the other so far. Put away any hate, anger, disappointment, jealousy, or any other unhealthy emotion, and just get yourself on that JESUS train. Now may the good times roll with JESUS CHRIST as Lord of your life, in His Holy and Most Precious Name.

AMEN
