Most people want to live for a long time. I hope that I have many more years to live. Why? Because I want to see my children and grandchildren grow up and have families of their own. God has blessed me with a wonderful family. They make me very happy.
But I do face problems in my life. All people have problems. Some people think that when they become Christians, they won't have any more problems. But that's not true. Sometimes Christians have even more problems because they follow and obey God.
When I have problems, I know that God will be with me and help me. In Psalm 91:15 God says that He is my source of help. "When my followers call to me, I will answer them. I will be with them when they are in trouble. I will rescue them and honor them."
No matter what troubles I have today - financial problems, stress at work, family problems - I know that God will be with me. Whether I live a long time or just live for a few more years, I can be happy knowing God will help me.
Ask God to help you as you face problems today. You can depend on His love and grace!

The Bible is God's message to us. God's Holy Spirit inspired about 40 different men to write the books of the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Bible is available in many different languages around the world.
There are many books written in the world every day. Some books give us historical information or facts about the earth. Other books are written to entertain us. Some of these books will be printed again and again. But many will be out of print in a few years. God's Word, the Bible, is different.
1 Peter 1:25 tells us how God's Word is different. "'But the word of the Lord lasts forever.' And that word is the Good News that was told to you." God's Word will always be with us.
Think about what our world would be like without the Bible. People would not know what is right and what is wrong. They would not know about God's plan for their lives. That would be a very sad world!
Even though the Bible was written many years ago, it is still important for us. Take time to read God's Word today. Depend on it to lead you in the right way. And thank God for giving you His message that will last forever.

-------Many years ago, a young Deaf couple had a baby. At that time, there were no baby cry alerts to let the mother know when her baby was crying. What did she do? At night, she tied a string around her baby's foot. Then the mother put the string down the hall and into her own bedroom. Finally, she tied the string around her own hand.
During the night when the baby cried and moved, the string moved, too. This woke up the mother. Sometimes the baby would move around and not be crying. But the mother would always get up and make sure that her baby was okay. What a great example of a mother's love!
God loves us even more than a mother loves her child. Psalm 121:3 tells us something about God, who is our Protector. "He will not let you fall. Your Protector will not fall asleep." God doesn't sleep. He is always ready to protect us. Another verse in the Bible tells us that God even knows the number of hairs on our heads. Wow! God really cares about each one of us. He is always willing to help us and show us His love.
Think about the many ways that God takes care of you today. Thank Him for His protection.
