Is it possible to please God, to make him happy? Are God’s feelings toward me affected by anything I can control? Yes!

Who is Going to Listen to Your Complaint?
Do you feel all alone today? Do people treat you unfairly? Do you feel like no one is interested in any of your problems and that there seems no way out of your difficult circumstances? Who can you complain to? The Creator of the universe and the one who knit you together in your mother's womb, and the one who loves you with an unfailing love is the one who is always available, and has plenty of time to listen to everything you have to say. Are you taking advantage of this incredible opportunity that you have right now, at this very moment, to talk to and pour out your soul to the one who knows you and loves you more than anyone else in the universe? I am sure that God is so sad when he sees you struggling, and you don't even take a moment of your day to come to him with your problems.
Don’t Put Your Trust in Human Government!
All human government is temporary, so let’s put our hope and trust in the Creator of the universe who loves us and cares for us! If we put our hope and trust in the Lord Jesus for all our needs, we won’t be so disappointed when human government lets us down or even takes advantage and mistreats us.
