There is hope and a future for you!


For me, (and maybe also for some of you) it seems that our society and the world around us are going crazy. I’ve heard that around the world there are over 40 armed conflicts going on RIGHT NOW! On the news, we hear about millions of people fleeing from Somalia, Syria, Iran and other countries. Think about what they are going through. Maybe you are a refugee? Maybe you have fled from your country because of a conflict going on? 

But there are not only things from outside that can make our life seem troublesome. Sometimes the worries, stress and problems come from within. Maybe we have a conflict in our family; our parents are going through a divorce, or maybe we ourselves are going through a divorce? We can have problems in school when the pressure from parents that we should succeed pushes us down. In China there are many students who can take the pressure to succeed any longer so they commit suicide. Maybe you are going through some of the turmoil from within.

Do you want to have hope? I think so. I have good news for you. There is Someone that sees your problems.

Can I tell you a short story about myself? I was a young adult without hope, it seemed. I tried to drown my sorrows with alcohol. I prayed many times and asked God to help me and you know what? He answered my prayers! One evening, He spoke to me that I wasn’t alone and that He had seen everything and loved me. I didn’t feel worthy of Him but He said that He wanted to have relationship with me. Then I asked Him to forgive my sins and be my Lord.

Nowadays, even if the world is still crazy. People still hate each other and the world is getting worse – I don’t worry. Because I know that He is there and He loves us.

Maybe you don’t know where to hide from the turmoil and the stress going on. Maybe you try to drown your worries in alcohol or drugs like I did. Remember, that He is close to you; just a prayer away. The Bible tells us that, everyone that calls on Jesus' name, shall be saved. 


There is still hope and a future waiting for you and your loves ones.
