Don’t say “Self-help”

People encourage the notion of “self-help” which means we can do everything by ourselves and we can control our fate.
But is it true?
We all wish ourselves to be the captain of our lives and depend on none.
In this way, we feel that we are strong and independent and that feels great, doesn’t it?
However, the fact is we are powerless, foolish and know little about our fate.
We need God to be our guide, showing us the way out of trouble and difficulties.
We need him to be our captain, leading us to the end of our lives peacefully.
We need Jesus to be our master, teaching us what is right and wrong.
When we are in temptation and trials, we need the Holy Spirit to give us power to overcome them.
We can never do this on our own without God’s help.
The fact is, we require the protection of Jesus, his guidance,consultation, comfort and help.
Let’s admit our powerlessness and depend on him.
Bring our troubles and worries to his presence and rely on his utmost power.
Don’t say “Self-help” but ” Jesus helps!”
