We all remember the famous stories we heard as children. The stories we grew up reading of fairytales with funny characters and heroes. Tales that perhaps you still tell your children today. However, as we grew older we quickly learned the difference between fact and fiction.
Although those stories fascinated us as children, we know life is no fairytale. Maybe you are living proof of this right now. As you struggle with this problem; the one that consumes all of your time, all of your energy, all of your strength, all of your hope; you wish that there was a fairytale ending for you. If only you could snap your fingers or click your heels together, and magically things would be solved. Those are the solutions of fairytales.
Here is the solution of facts: Faith.
There is a solution to your problem. You are not hopeless. Your solution is found in the Book of Life. It is no ordinary book, nor is it just a historical tale, or a storybook. It is the Bible and it promises life to those who obey the words written on the pages.
“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.” Matthew 24:35
The Word of God will not pass away. This is a fact. The Bible promises life and life in abundance. Healing, prosperity, hope, joy, peace, and the list of the promises of God goes on. Perhaps you have been feeling like life is filled with horrors. Base your life on the living Word because, for those who do, problems will come and go but the Word of God will always be there to rescue them. God’s word will never fail.
May the God of the Bible bless you!
