Every day we all have to decide something: Whether to have toast or eggs or both for breakfast, whether to go to school or stay home, whether to go to work or pretend to be sick. We have so many opportunities given to us each day because God wants us to make the right choice when it counts.
So when you come to a problem, put God first. If you do, he will help sort out the rest of your problems. There's no point worrying about what will happen. Worrying is bad for your health. You can change your worries into your trust in God. Then, everything would turn out fine.
Be happy for what God has given you, be happy for the times he has saved your hide, be happy for him.

Striving through problem
Every actions has both a reason and consequence. God will never give you an obstacle in life for no reason at all, think and try to find out what God is wanting you to learn from this problem. By converting your problems into challenges, you will find them more easy to live life. Remember: Life is a test, and no test is easy.

Challenges
As we all know, life is tough. Everyone of us has challenges that meet us everyday. Being a Christian is no different. God isn't going to straighten your path for you. In fact, a Christian's life may be harder tan an average life. That's because we have the great responsibility of spreading the gospel to those who don't know it. Think about the people around you, how many of them don't believe? Even if attempt you reach out to just one person, you would have saved one person and brought him to God. God will certainly remember this because it is out mission on earth to spread the word.
So don't be discouraged by the challenge that just seems too hard. God will not make any challenge out of our reaches. If God gave us a challenge, he certainly knows that we can and will complete it.

Mother's Day - how important?
Mother's Day is celebrated internationally, so its importance is already quite large in a worldwide scale, but how important should it be to you?
Nowadays, Mother's Day is more of a retail day than a celebration for your mother. I'm sure if you turn on the T.V, the advertisements would mostly sound like this:
" Don't forget its Mother's Day! Spoil her with these 12 carat diamond rings for only $99.99."
Is that what Mother's Day is about? Buying your beloved parent some expensive item, so that the burden will be gone?
Ok, so maybe you don't get along quite well with your mother. And maybe your mother may actually be a bad parent. But them being a bad parent does not make you a bad child. Maybe if you showed her love she would be different. Maybe.
Now I'll get to the point. How important is Mother's Day to you?
First, let us see what God has to say. In the Ten Commandments, he made the Honor your father and mother commandment the sixth commandment. And the five commandments before it were relating to your relationship with God. This makes Honor your father and mother the first commandment relating to humans.
So God thinks your parents are pretty important. Why shouldn't you? You probably are one or will be one. Would you want your children to treat you badly?
This Mother's Day try to make more of an effort than last time. Buying her material goods is just pricing your mother. Doing something simple like just saying, ' I love you.' is much harder but can be 1000 times more effective.

Made for a mission
You weren't placed on earth to do nothing, here on earth you have a mission, to contribute in this world. Jesus had a mission too; when he was a child he said "I must be about my fathers business" and then a couple years later he said "It is finished" before dying on the cross.
Our missions on earth is similar to the one Jesus had, to spread the word of Christ.
"Go to the people of all nations and make them my disciples. Baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, and teach them to do everything I have told you"
