What do I mean by the big picture and how is that so important? The big picture is that God knows everything: past, present and future. He knew us before we were born, He oversees everything we do and what is in our heart and He is ready to help us with any and every problem. Oh, He's given us a brain and the power of reasoning so that we can work through our problems, but unless we listen to His living gift sent by Jesus, the Holy Spirit, we will fall short. After all, we are mere mortal sinners until we make the connection with Christ and commit to Him. The Holy Spirit is our internal guidance counselor and if we listen carefully, we'll know what to do. And what we will do will be the true and right thing.
God loves us and wants the best for us and that means He wants us to ultimately live with Him for Eternity in His heavenly home. But it's up to us to make the decision with our free will to make that decision and it must be done through faith. While there is plenty of evidence that He is with us and that His Son came to earth to give us true freedom through forgiveness, it still leaves room for doubt and that's where faith is put to the test. So we must open our heart to the Holy Spirit and He will connect us with the Savior who will give you the truth and the peace that the Father so wants us to have. And then we never have to worry again for we will be headed for the wonders of His Celestial Home.
Doesn't that solve your worries? Live for Him and live forever. God bless you all and enjoy your Saturday.
