Finding the light in your life?

Have you had moments where you feel like you are in a dark tunnel?
 Sometimes I do when I focus on myself and I forget the eternal perspective of life.

 John 8:12 it says

Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Of course it’s by following Jesus Christ that I will be able to get through the dark tunnel. It’s by looking for the light, looking pass the hard moment, forgetting myself and by recognizing Jesus Christ in my life that I will be able to get through anything.

Losing my brother hasn't been easy, it wasn't something I expected and its hard. Its not easy for me. I can testify though that as it says in John 14:18 

I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

I know this is true, because I have felt it time and time again. In the lowest moments if we turn to the Lord and trust in Him, He will comfort us!
I know that families are eternal and I will see my brother again.

Thank you for sharing your most personal struggles with Jimmy's death, Karen. Even as we understand the eternal perspective, it doesn't make the pain or sense of, any easier for us. My heart and prayers are with you, dear sister. Love, Nana LoJo aka Sister Johnson :)
