The guide star of God.

The guide star of God.

(For children and youth)

Jimmy's eyes filled with tears as he looked at the grade in his hand, not as he had hoped...Not just this term, but the last several terms, everything is getting worse. The dream of going to the top university seems to have gone out with hope in mind.

He walked home quietly and hid in his bedroom, refusing to talk to anyone...I know you're tired. Talk to God. "

Jimmy didn't answer, but he fell on the bed, picked up the Bible that his mother had put on the table, opened metaphysically, and his eyes stumbled upon a verse...

"Then God led the righteous in a righteous way" (Psalm 23: 3).

As soon as he finished reading, a hold of tears ran down his cheeks. He had never felt the word 'righteous' before, but now it seemed to be the only light in the darkness. He realized that all along he was trying to use his own abilities to guide life alone, not the light from God.

That night, Jimmy opened his heart to prayer for the first time in months; he apologized to God for the wrong-way effort; and, putting his dream into His hands, he fell asleep with a calmer heart than ever.

The next morning, he woke up with a new feeling, not that everything would magically improve, but that there was a "guiding star" in his heart, guiding his life. He started by reorganizing his studies, planning everything again, always with prayers.

Throughout the rest of the school year, his grades did not skyrocket by leaps and bounds, but he felt that every step he walked, there was real peace and, importantly, he learned to trust in God rather than his own abilities.

Eventually, although he was not addicted to an aspiring university, but had a unique opportunity from another university that better suited his talents, he never regretted it, knowing that this was the path God had provided.

What about you...Is there anything heavy in your heart and are you ready to give God the wheel of life?

Let's share the experience in the comments...

"What Bible verses compare" guide stars "to your life?"

... Read moreดาวนำทางในมุมมองของความเชื่อ ไม่ได้เป็นเพียงแค่แสงสว่างในท้องฟ้าเท่านั้น แต่ยังสื่อถึงการชี้แนะแนวทางและการมีความหวังในชีวิต เช่นเดียวกับเรื่องราวของจิมมี่ที่ได้พบกับดาวนำทางของพระเจ้าในเวลาที่เขารู้สึกอ่อนแอและท้อแท้ ในชีวิตประจำวันที่เต็มไปด้วยความยากลำบากและความไม่แน่นอน เราเคยรู้สึกเหมือนจมอยู่กับปัญหาและไม่มีที่พึ่ง ดาวนำทางสำหรับแต่ละคนอาจเป็นข้อความจากพระคัมภีร์ คำแนะนำจากผู้มีประสบการณ์ หรือแม้แต่เสียงภายในใจที่สร้างกำลังใจให้เราเดินต่อไป การค้นพบดาวนำทางของตนเองเป็นกระบวนการที่สำคัญ เหมือนจิมมี่ที่เรียนรู้การวางใจในพระเจ้า แทนการพึ่งพาความสามารถของตัวเองเพียงอย่างเดียว เรื่องนี้สอนให้เรารู้ว่าการเปิดใจและยอมรับคำแนะนำที่มาจากชีวิตหรือศรัทธาสามารถเป็นแสงสว่างนำทางให้ผ่านช่วงเวลายากๆ ไปได้ อีกทั้งภาพวาดชายหนุ่มที่กำลังร้องไห้ขณะอ่านพระคัมภีร์ท่ามกลางความมืด แต่มีแสงดาวสุกใสจากท้องฟ้าข้างนอกหน้าต่าง นับเป็นสัญลักษณ์ของความหวังและการปลอบประโลมในยามที่เรารู้สึกหมดแรง การมีดาวนำทางในใจจึงไม่ใช่แค่เรื่องของความเชื่อทางศาสนาเท่านั้น แต่เป็นสิ่งที่ใครก็สามารถนำมาเป็นแรงบันดาลใจในชีวิตจริงได้ สำหรับเยาวชนหรือใครก็ตามที่กำลังเผชิญความยากลำบาก ลองมองหาดาวนำทางในแบบของตัวเอง ไม่ว่าจะเป็นคำสอน ข้อความสร้างกำลังใจ หรือประสบการณ์ชีวิตที่ช่วยให้เราก้าวไปข้างหน้าอย่างมั่นคงและมีความสงบในใจ
