Are you a GOOD person?

Try the ultimate test here

No I am not a good person. Not in the eyes of God, not by His standards. Time to self-reflect.

I find comfort in You.

"God will let you laugh again. You'll raise the roof with shouts of joy"
- Job 8:21.

"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not to thine own under standing. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”
- Proverbs 3:5-6

"Come to me all you who are burdened and I will give you rest"
- Matt 11:28

If God is for me, who can be against me?

Footprints in the sand....

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there was one only.
This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints, so I said to the Lord,
“You promised me Lord,that if I followed you, you would walk with me always.
But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there has only been one set of footprints in the sand.
Why, when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?”
The Lord replied, “The years when you have seen only one set of footprints, my child, is when I carried you.”
- Mary Stevenson, 1936
