We Make Life Confusing and Stressful, Not God!

IF you look at this picture to the left, it seems that the picture is moving. It looks like water is actually moving, but it really isn't.  It's our eyes and our brains that are really fooling us.  It's just an actual drawing that is made to look like it's doing something, but in reality it's doing nothing at all.  It's actually us making it confusing!

Same way with life it's us who are making life confusing and stressful.  It wasn't supposed to be this way. God had no intentions of the world being this way.  We humans have made it this way.  We put so much on ourselves it's just stupid.

Did Jesus live this way? Did Jesus have to have a master's degree and a PhD to survive in this world?  Did Jesus have to have the most prestigious job in the world? Did Jesus have to have the highest paying job?  Did he have to worry with the profit loss of his company? Did Jesus ever think of these things? NO!  Then we shouldn't either! But the world pressures us through bullying us.  We have to have money to pay our bills, and the greedy continue to raise the prices on items we really need.  So we  have to work harder and work longer so we can survive in this world.  To me it's stupid, but if I want to live a comfortable life and be able to keep up with the greed of this world I can't stay on the porch and watch the other dogs win.  Through the world's eyes we have to run with the pact or be left behind. 

Life is tough and as I get older I see it getting more stressful.  People are what make it the way it is.  You could use the phrase, "it is what it is!" But I won't, I think things could change but only if we do something to change them.  As Satan rules throughout this world and does his best to make things more complicated, it won't be any better.  Through a great amount of prayer it could become a lot better, but many won't go to God in prayer. They won't lower themselves to believe in something they cannot touch.  Greed is their God, and so it is what it is! 

For us who believe in Christ we need to look at his example of how he lived.  He didn't have the best of the best.  His intentions were not about greed or Phd's.  His intentions were about his Father in heaven. His ideals were saving the lost and getting his message across. He came to redo the world and it's thinking.  To bring our lives back to the real source of living because they had it all wrong. Living for God and not for the world was his point. Our lives should be about being the best for him not for man.  We should do our best every day to impress him not some human manager or CEO. 

Bring the real meaning of life back to our world.  Let's set our desires on him not the world and it's lies.  Be for God, and life will get better.
