Remedies, Etc

A pain reliever, a treatment, a cure, a legal means to redress a wrong, a solution, an answer, a magic formula....

The AARP Bulletin advertises remedies for *not having enough life insurance *stress-reducers: purchase the Safe Step Walk-In Tub *emergencies: get Life Alert *making life easier with the Jitterbug phone *leaves in your gutter: get Leaf Filter gutter protection and *Scammers: God's Pearl of Wisdom diamond pendant to keep his wisdom close to your heart...always

No matter your age and what you read or what you watch or what you see on faceback, we are deluged with remedies for everything in this life. Mental health, physical health, loneliness, aging, protection....

It's endless!

Is something big missing from our lives for us to pay so much attention to all this glitter....

Is it possible we were created to be this way?

God wants us to feel incomplete. Incomplete, that is, without Him. Incomplete, until we reach our real home, the Heavenly Kingdom. Incomplete, until we understand Christ's death so that we might live forgiven. So that we might live in peace, joy, contentment in every situation and know He's got it.

The will of God will never take you 
where the peace of God will not protect you.

Of course, we need to be discerning in meeting our earthly needs, taking care of our selves, our families, our surroundings; however, God's guidance is needed in all things and when we are Spirit-filled, we will see more clearly.

"...your real life is hidden with Christ in God. 
And when Christ who is your real life 
is revealed to the whole world, 
you will share in all His glory." 
Colossians 3:3-4

That is a one of a kind awesome remedy!
