You should remain positive and calm during hard times. I had cancer. How I got through the day was thinking: God is not going to let me die this way. I have a lot more to do. And thinking about when the good times come, and that it's going to work out. Do not be afraid. - Bible

NEVERRRRRRR look desperate in life, bro. Remain calm during hard times. Understand it's just your time to suffer like every great man before you.

Jesus did not just die. He was brutally tortured: In 1986, the American Medical Association published an article titled "The Physical Death of Jesus Christ". It details the entire process of Jesus' trial to His death on the cross. In Luke 22, before Jesus is arrested, it is written that He was in great distress & sweating blood. Although rare, it is recognized as Hematidrosis, a condition caused by high levels of stress. At the time, the crucifixion was considered the worst death for the worst of criminals. But this is not all Jesus faced. He endured whipping so severe that it tore the flesh from His body. He was beaten so horribly that His face was torn & His beard ripped. A crown of thorns, 2-3 inches long cut deeply into His scalp. The leather whip used to flog Him had tiny iron balls & sharp bones. The balls caused internal injuries while the sharp bones ripped open His flesh. His skeletal muscles, veins, & bowels are exposed, causing major blood loss. Most men do not survive this kind of torture. After Jesus was severely flogged, He was forced to carry His cross while people mocked & spat on Him. Crucifixion was a process meant to instill excruciating pain, creating a slow & agonizing death. Nails as long as 8 inches were driven into Jesus' wrists & feet. The Roman soldiers knew the tendons in the wrists would tear & break, forcing Jesus to use His back muscles to support Himself to breathe. Imagine the struggle, the pain, the courage...Jesus endured this reality for 3 hours! The Gospel of John writes that after Jesus' death, a Roman soldier pierced His side with a spear & blood & water came out. Scientists explain that from hypovolemic shock, the rapid heart rate causes fluid to gather in the sack around the lungs & heart. The accumulation of fluid in the membrane around the heart is called a Pericardial effusion & the lungs is called a pleural effusion. To the world, Christianity is as foolish as it can get. They believe it's for the weak. But when you are confronted by the reality of the cross, it's clearly not a pretty sight. It is brutal & horrific. This is the weight Jesus carried. The weight of the sins of the world, all so that we can live. God's wrath is fully satisfied in Jesus. This is what it took. Repent & believe! Jesus is “God among us” in the flesh. Jesus is our Savior. Jesus loves you so much that He went through this spiritual and physical punishment for your sins and mine. Jesus is King!

@Dearme2_ In my darkest place I minimalized my life. Unplugged. Kept it simple. Prayed to Yeshua. Repented. Lifted. Went for tons of walks. Felt like I was literally fighting demons. Had to turn away from the flesh. Understand things are temporary.

@StayWithGod111 Amen. It's been hard for sure man. Lord renew my mind and keep my paths straight. I don't have it bad. I find gratitude knowing that my struggles aren't as bad as what Jesus endured or the struggles of Job.

God calls us to build lives of honest work and generosity. Too many today would rather take from others than create or labor for themselves. This way of thinking goes against the heart of Scripture. From the beginning, God gave us work to do. He placed Adam in the garden to tend it. The Bible teaches that if anyone is not willing to work, neither should he eat. Hard work honors the Lord and blesses those around us. Instead of envying or demanding what belongs to someone else, we can trust God to provide as we do our part. Jesus showed us a better way, serving others with His hands and giving His life for us. When we work diligently and voluntarily share what we have, we live out real faith. Let us choose to build and give freely, just as our Savior did. "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men" (Colossians 3:23).

@AgainstAtheismX Intelligent design for sure. That’s just one of God’s creatures. Millions of different specifies and ecosystems that make everything work is crazy. But apparently proteins that exploded from nothing made this much variance. The only thing that explain it is an Eternal Creator
