Last time I checked, nobody likes    having problems—problems with money, problems with cars, problems with computers, problems with people or problems with health. We would all prefer a life with as few difficulties as possible.

So, if you were to offer people the choice between (1) a future totally free of problems, sorrow, tears and pain, or (2) a future full of pain, suffering, regret and anguish—they would choose option one, right?

Jesus died on the cross to give us the opportunity to experience that option. If we repent of our sins and trust Him as our Saviour, He has promised us a life of fellowship with God in a place the Bible calls heaven. A place with no problems. A place where there are no more tears.

People living in a world full of problems ought to be standing in line to grab that offer. Unfortunately, many haven’t heard the good news; others have refused to trust Christ. When people die without Jesus, it’s too late to take the offer, and they go to a place of torment the Bible calls hell.

Do you hate trouble and pain? Turn to Jesus and accept His offer of forgiveness. Your problems in this world won’t disappear, but you’ll reserve a home in heaven—a place of eternal joy and peace with God.
