God Has Four Gifts For You

I found a little poem, that relates four gifts that God gives to each one of us. When you look at the photo and read the poem, you will see what they are. But I would like to take each one, and apply Scripture to it.
 1. A Key For Every Problem. 
 "I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)
The key to every problem is knowing that in our Lord Jesus Christ, we can have peace, because He has overcome the world, and He will help us to have victory.
 2. A Light For Every Shadow 
 "Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12)
If we follow Jesus, instead of the world, we will have the Light of Life, to light our way, through the shadows of uncertainty and despair.
 3. A Plan For Every Tomorrow 
 "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." 
(Jeremiah 29:11)
What God has planned for our lives, is not an evil scheme to hurt us, or to destroy us, like that of Satan. But His plans for us is to give us a bright future, and a bright hope to hang on to.
 4. A Joy For Every Sorrow 
"For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning." (Psalm 30:5) 
Whether it is because of the Lord's discipline, or because of the trials of life, sorrow does come for a time, but God replaces that sorrow with joy, because of the hope He gives us.

Four wonderful gifts God gives us.
In faith embrace them today, and be truly blessed! GP
