There Is a Better Way

Growing up fatherless can be a stressful life where lots of things can go wrong at a moment's notice. My heart goes out to those who grew up fatherless like I did. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2020, there were 24.7 million fatherless under thirty years of age. Being fatherless does not need to be the sad reality of our human predicament. There is a better way! First Peter 5:6-7 states, "Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt (to highly praise) you in due time, casting all of your cares upon Him (God), for He cares (loves) for you."

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain when you build a loving relationship with God our Father, accept Jesus, His son, as your Personal Savior, and allow God's Holy Spirit to live in your heart and guide your life. You must desire to allow God to change you to become more Christ like in order to love and have compassion for others and for yourself. Jesus told His twelve disciples in Matthew 19:26 that with God all things are possible, even changing ourselves and our lives. Man cannot change himself for the better, but God can make these changes with your cooperation.

I want you to know that there is hope; there is a better way-not only for this earthly life, but also into the next eternal life to come.

God loves you for who you are, and His love is unconditional. For God created you as His child, and all God asks is that you love Him in return.
