What Does John 14:1 Means to Me Personally?

What Does John 14:1 means to me personally?

        Praise The Lord Saints!!  Praise The Lord!!  How are all of you doing today? Fine, I hope.  I want to ask all of you a very important question.  What does John 14:1 mean? 

The Bible verse says: Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.  I want to say that I am feeling very troubled as of late.  Even though, I believe in God, I am feeling very sad right now.  My reason for feeling troubled because my foundation is sinking below me.  I am saying this because my family members and I have been arguing with each other over the human past.  This does not make any sense to me at all.

Next, let not your heart be troubled means do not worry about anything.  God is on my side as well as your side.  I know that I have allowed myself to let other people’s comments and observations affect me.  I do not have any business allowing the opinion of others to adversely affect me.  My heart has been troubled because I have allowed it to trouble me.

2^nd Timothy 1:7 says: For God does not give us a spirit of fear, but of love, power, and of a sound mind.  I believe in this Bible verse because it pertains to human behavior.  What is the definition of the word trouble?  The definition of the trouble is Trouble is anything that causes difficulty, worry, and inconvenience, or that prevents you from doing something. If you have trouble getting along with a classmate, it is hard to be friendly with him or her.

Moreover, I am not supposed to be moved by the troubles of this world.  I believe in the Power of the Living God.  I am very sorry that other people and I do not get along with each other.  For Instance, I was on the phone with a relative last night 2/29/20 at 7:00PM.

 We were talking about a party that he was going, when suddenly, he received a phone call from another relative.  I inquired of my other relative’s phone number, and all of a sudden, she cussed me out.  She refused to give me her phone number.  We exchanged unpleasant statements towards each other.  I had to get on my knees and apologize for my own behavior.  I did not mean to use vulgarity towards my relatives.  God does not want us to be enslaved to anything.  God does not want to become slaves of things that are not of Him.  I am apologizing to everyone by saying that I am very sorry for using vulgarity.  My relatives are always pushing my buttons.

Further, when it comes to letting not your heart be troubled, this means do not allow anyone else to rent space inside of my head.  I have to set my mind on Christ Jesus rather than allowing man, woman, and child to get the best of me.  I want to say that all human behavior is learned.  My grandparents did not teach me how to use vulgarity.  I do not understand why I am suffering right now, but my family members do not support me like they supposed to.  I will admit that I am dependent on Jesus Christ to supply all of my needs.  It is very sad that other people are trampling over me for no reason.

In Addition believe in God: I believe in God.  I am trying my very best to maintain my composure when I am around other people.  It is that my own nieces and nephews have been giving me problems from the time I have known them.  I am also saying that I am a person that will completely stay away from you.  I will love you from a distance.  This is a fact.  I will pray for you; even though, you are broken inside.  I have been dealing with broken family members.  I am very sorry that my nieces and nephews do not get along with each other.  I am not supposed to devaluate me in any way. 

Finally, when it comes to believing in God, also believe in me; means that I am supposed to believe in God rather than man himself.  Acts 5:29 says: But Peter and the other Apostles answered and said we ought to obey God rather than men.  This is the truth.  I am supposed to love other people in the same way that Jesus Christ loved others.  I know that my life during the past 10 years have been filled with ups and downs in my personal life.  Currently, if my family members do not respect me as a member of the human race, then, I have to move away from them.
