With the global energy crisis, fuel prices in my country( Mozambique) rose by about 45% this week; last Sunday, I was asked to deliver a message to the church!!
So many ideas came to me, such as!!
Don’t be afraid—this will pass!
Trust in God; He will sustain us. I realized that while this is true, we often don’t preach the whole truth to the people, and this creates a generation of believers who look at God with a certain distrust because He doesn’t do everything they expect, and they live with the hope that one day things will get better.
Paul’s words in Philippians 4:11 came to mind.
...“I have learned to be content with whatever I have...”
Paul isn’t saying to resign ourselves to our circumstances, but that in the face of the world’s impermanence, he learned an important secret: to be content with what he has... It’s a valuable lesson that can help us let go of the feeling that something is missing in our lives and the thirst to pursue things that seemingly bring us happiness.

Praise be to God always!
My son was born last year and had severe jaundice. He was hospitalized for two weeks for phototherapy. He suffered brain damage, has already turned one year old, and still cannot sit or stand. We have been praying and believing in God, following all medical advice, physiotherapy three times a week, and cervical massage twice a week. Today we received news that he will possibly not be able to share. It was like a knife to our hearts. I felt like crying out, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" At that moment, Psalm 34:19 came to mind. During my childhood and youth, God delivered me from many anguishes, and I believe He will deliver me from this one too!! Fraternal hugs
