RESTART

“That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the Gentiles... says the Lord who does this thing.” - Amos 9:12

The products manufactured by one large company, suddenly, got less reception from the public. The head of the company explored the reason. He felt that it was because of the dwindling speed of the machine, the quality of the out coming products was also decreased. But he did not know how to correct it. Within that, he got loss. He was tired because he had no other way that he would close the company. At that time, one employee who worked for a long time in that company told if all parts of the machine would be removed to get serviced and restarted, then that machine would run well. Immediately, that head of the company, called for people to get the machine to be serviced. Those people came and removed and cleaned all the parts, replaced the worn-out parts, put oil and grease, made the teeth of the machine sharp and restarted. That machine was made as new and the quality of the products made from that machine was improved and the reception from the public was improved.  

When Job was attacked by losses and sufferings, he was not able to bear his grief and he cursed the day of his birth. He was tired and spoke with frustration. Even then, he surrendered his life to the Lord by saying “You can do everything, and that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You.” When he surrendered his life, the Lord restarted his life. At that juncture, his life was changed as more blessed than before. 

Beloveds! Are you not willing to live this life and tired because of losses and diseases in your life? Don’t be agitated. This is the time to restart. No doubt that He will re-align all parts of our life and modify with new glow. Are you thinking how I am telling this, with this much confidently? The reason behind this is, when I lost my husband and abandoned by all and I was in my bitterness of mind and frustration, and with my thoughts of everything was over, words of God like this, excited me. I also dedicated me. After my dedication, I had the struggle for some months, like, freed from the rope to be tied with rough chain. But that was the period of being serviced by our Lord. After some months, He corrected my life and restarted. 

If you hate your life and you yourself search for an end to it, then the life till now we have passed will be a waste. Our share will be in hell. Whether we have tried for this? God gave us life. When we surrender ourselves to His will, the life in paradise is sure.
