Many People Are Lost and Don’t Know Where to Turn

I have seen and met many people who feel lost in life. They are confused, broken, and unsure of what to do next. Some try to fill their emptiness by staying in unhealthy relationships. Others have babies, hoping it will help someone stay with them. But deep down, they are still hurting. A baby cannot fix a broken heart or a broken relationship. A child is a blessing, not a way to fill the empty places inside.

Many people say they don’t believe in God. When asked why, they often say, “If God is real, why is there so much pain in the world?” They look around and see poverty, sickness, broken families, war, and sadness. They also feel their own pain and ask, “Why me?”

These are honest questions, and they deserve real answers. The truth is, God did not create the world full of suffering. In the beginning, the world was perfect. But when sin entered the world, pain and death followed. People began to choose their own way instead of God's way. That is where the hurt started.

Even so, God still loves us. He gives each of us free will—the ability to choose. He wants us to come to Him because we love Him, not because we are forced. Sadly, many people turn away from God and try to fix their lives on their own. But nothing in this world can take the place of God's love.

Only God can heal what’s broken inside us. He sees your pain. He understands your struggles. He has not forgotten you. If you feel lost, you are not alone. You can turn to Him today. He is always ready to listen, comfort, and guide you.

If you're unsure where to start, reading the Bible and using resources like prayer books, inspirational books, and journals can help. Christianbook.com offers many of these tools to guide you in your journey with God. Whether you need help praying, learning more about faith, or writing down your thoughts and struggles, these resources are available for you. Sometimes just reading one encouraging page or writing one honest prayer can bring peace to your heart.

Don’t wait for life to get easier before you turn to God. He is the One who brings true peace and healing.

A Simple Prayer:

Dear God,

I feel lost. Sometimes I feel like no one understands what I’m going through. I try to fix my life on my own, but it’s not working. I need You. Please come into my heart and heal me. Forgive me for trying to do life without You. Show me Your way. Help me find peace in You. Thank You for loving me, even when I don’t feel worthy. Teach me how to trust You one step at a time. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
