When Life Is Hard It's Easy To

Every Year During Their High Holy Days, The Jewish Community Reminds Us All Of Our Need For Repentance And Forgiveness.

One Response Was Given By The Innkeeper When Mary And Joseph Wanted To Find A Room Where The Child Could Be Born. The Innkeeper Was Not Hostile; He Was Not Opposed To Them, But His Inn Was Crowded; His Hands Were Full; His Mind Was Preoccupied. This Is The Answer That Millions Are Giving Today. Like A Bethlehem Innkeeper, They Cannot Find Room For Christ. All The Accommodations In Their Hearts Are Already Taken Up By Other Crowding Interests. Their Response Is Not Atheism. It Is Not Defiance. It Is Preoccupation And The Feeling Of Being Able To Get On Reasonably Well Without Christianity.

When Life Is Hard It's Easy To Focus Only On The Bad Things And Forget All About The Good Things God Has Given Us. But God Has Blessed Every One Of Us In Ways We Often Overlook.

Talk About God Can Become Dreary And Lackluster If God Isn't In You.

Prayer Is More Than A Wish; It Is The Voice Of Faith Directed To God.
