There is a purpose
The Lord will vindicate me;
your love, Lord, endures forever—
do not abandon the works of your hands.
- Psalm 138:8
There is a purpose for which you are where you are at this moment in history. You have something to contribute to making this world better. God has given you potential, and you must use it to bless the people around you and so that the name of the Lord may be exalted wherever you are.
Bring joy to those who are sad and a word of encouragement to those who are discouraged. These are very simple ways to bring the love of Christ to the people around you. You are here today, and God wants to use you for His glory, let Him guide you!
If you feel discouraged thinking that you have nothing to contribute, speak to the Father. Ask Him to guide you in His purpose for your life. Open your heart to His love and rest in Him. God will never abandon you, and He will guide you every step of the way. Trust your heavenly Father and do not forget that your life has a purpose.
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
- Ephesians 2:10

Find peace in Jesus
In the midst of fear, hatred, and violence in the world, where can you find peace? In Jesus! The whole world may be burning around you, but Jesus can give you a peace that does not depend on circumstances. When you love Jesus, you can be certain that He is in control of your life and that He will help you.
Regardless of the flames that may be consuming the world around us, Jesus offers a peace that rises above all problems. This peace is not fragile; it is not shaken by the storms of life. It is a peace that dwells deeply in the hearts of those who love Him and trust in Him.
When we surrender our lives to Jesus, we trust that He is in control. We know that He is always willing to help us and guide us through the challenges we face. This faith gives us a sense of tranquility and security that goes beyond the worries of the world.
In Jesus, we find a beacon of hope, an anchor that keeps us firm even in the most difficult moments. He invites us to lay our burdens on Him and to rest in His peace. Thus, even in the midst of adversity, we find the true peace that the world cannot offer. Therefore, when you look for peace in a troubled world, find it in Jesus, for He is the unshakable source of peace and comfort.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
- John 14:27
Let the peace of Jesus fill your heart today!

We will become full of frustration if we focus on the world. But when we look to the Lord, we know that He can open doors that no one else could open. If you need a job, ask Jesus, because the Kingdom of God is never in crisis. God is good and He is always faithful!
Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.
- Jeremiah 32:17
What seems impossible for human beings is possible for God. He knows what is best for you and wants to guide you to achieve it. Spend some time with God, talking to Him about your need to find a new job. Pray that He will help you connect with the right people who can support you in this situation. Seek guidance on how to write a better résumé and stay alert to job opportunities.
But above all, do not become overwhelmed. Take steps of faith and trust that God will open doors and help you.
