What to do When Nothing Seems right?.

Psalm 39
David had been through so much. Running away from Solomen who wanted to kill him. He would have faces hunger, depression, sicknesses, wild animals, enemies of his nation not to mention the enemies from his own nations, and just feeling like God left him and everything he did was wrong. Half the time he wanted to die. It is true most of us will not face that much at the same time in our lives but we do have problems of our own that make us feel like everything we do is completely wrong. What do you do then? Pray call out to God. Tell him how you feel. Ask him to show his unfailing love to you.
2 Chronicles 7:14
14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
Our God is a God who can fogive and forget. He loves us more than anything but we need to pray and show him how humble we are. It takes work I hate to admit it but its not easy sometimes it's really hard but in the end it is worth it. To have someone who loves you no matter what you do.
Matthew 6:5
5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.
Prayer is not a way to show off. I has to be from the heart. It is not bad to pray at church or on the street corners, but what is the main reason you are doing it. Is it so that cute girl at church that sits two rows infront of you will see? Cause we all know she is a "God Girl". Or is it so you can talk to God?
Romans 8:26
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.
At times I find it hard to pray. I always wonder what to say. Do I start with "Dear Lord" "Almighty God I am here" "Dear Jesus" "Hey their um God" "Whats up Lord". But does it matter what you start with no. I matters what you say durning your pray and how your heart feels. God will never judge. As you pray you will know what to say and when you do, you know that is the Holy Spirit guiding you.

Have you ever tried memorizing a verse? Well let me challenge you to memorize this one. Or if you are a dare devil I DARE you to memorise this one. It is short. Go for it!
1 Thessalonians 5:16-17
16 Rejoice always, 17 pray continually,

May God's Blessing be shown in you life to all who read this. May you see that life is more than chances.
