Letter to those who are suffering
28 December 2009

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

Perhaps, your life is also without form and void; without personal achievements and devoid of goals. Devoid of love, joy, dreams, and even faith, but weighed down with depression. Yet just as it was at the beginning of creation, the Spirit of God is also hovering over you—regardless of what you have done. He is waiting for your invitation to change your life into a new one, like He did on the earth.

Maybe you have been carrying the memories of a sad past—grudges, hatred and vengeance. What have you done or what are you going to do about it? What have these things profited you? Get rid of them and, right now, invite the Spirit of Life to dwell in your body!

No matter where you are, He is hovering over you. Find a quiet place—even your bathroom, for example— and talk to Him. If you are sincere with Him, as sure as He exists, He will answer you immediately. And your New Year will be different from everything you’ve seen so far!
