Don't just feel bad. Do something!

Don't just feel bad. Do something.

There are people who always try to do the right thing. Their house and study are clean and everything is in order.

They pay their bills on time and always contact all their relatives on their birthday.

They are good workers and they save money.

They go to church every Sunday and read the Bible every day.

But sometimes they feel restless. They can't get rid of the question.

“Who am I actually? What am I on this earth for?”

Then there are other people who dream of something. They want to achieve something and be someone.

They develop their talents, read good books and pray for wisdom.

They play beautiful music or write a blog. Maybe they write a book, or go on mission trips.

But they may neglect their family, or their daily duties and chores.

If you are a hardworking perfectionist,  but you feel empty inside, you don't need to stay as you are.

Go for a walk. Look at the trees and clouds. Ask God to show you what He created you to be. 

If you are a dreamer, but you feel bad because you are disorganised, you can also do something different today.

You can tidy a drawer in your desk. You can throw away some papers.

Are you a workaholic husband? Go for a walk with your wife in the park.

Are you a hardworking housewife whose house must always be spotless and sparkling clean? Take some time out and play with your kids.

Maybe you are lonely and stuck by yourself. Is there someone you can pray for? Someone you can help? Someone you can talk to on the phone?

No matter what type you are, you don't have to stay that way.

From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, “Change your hearts and lives, because the kingdom of heaven is near.” Mt 4:17 NCV

Don't just feel bad. Do something! Jesus loves you as you are, but he wants to help you to change and grow.
