FIND OUT WHY PEOPLE ARE SAD
WHY ARE PEOPLE SAD?
If I ask you why those sad people are sad,
what would be your answer?
If you say people are sad because they do
not chose to be happy, you are wrong for most sad people chose to be happy but
they couldn’t find happiness infact they are sad because their choice of things
that should make them happy turned our sour.
If you say people are sad because of the
economy of their lives, then you are wrong because there are people will similar
and poorer economic conditions that are happy.
If you say people are sad because they are
not rich you are wrong because most if not all rich people are not living
happily.
If you say people are sad because things aren’t
perfect for them, well define perfection because what Mr. A calls perfection
Mr. B calls a starting point.
If you say people are sad because they
experience rejections well you are wrong because there are so many rejected
people that are happy and thankful for their rejections.
If I have seen a blind girl say ‘blindness
is Gods greatest gift to her’, that she won’t want to see with her eyes; she is
right now working on software that would enable the blinds use computers.
I have seen a lame man thanking God for his
lameness because if not for his physical challenge he wouldnt had appeared in
para-olympics.
We are sad not because we don’t want to be
happy but because we seek for happiness in the wrong places and wrong things.
We seek joy in careers, marriage, in
people, in things, in events, in accomplishments and though it may seems we
find it at first but later we discover that career, marriage, people, things,
events, accomplishments aren’t the sources of Joy and so we fall into sadness
again and again.
Joy is comes only by the Lord not a product
of a working marriage, relationships, careers etc. there is no man or things
that once you get you’ll forever be happy. It’s only in Christ that there is
eternal Joy.
Paul revealed the source of Joy when he
said ‘now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye
may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost’. Romans 15:13
If God has not filled you with Joy and
Peace, nothing else will, not your marriage, relationships, career, parties,
accomplishments etc.
God bless you
