It is so easy to let ruin wreck your life and your future.  However, choosing a revival with Jesus is the absolute tonic for your issues. When you put Jesus in the driving seat, and draw nearer to Him you will feel a transformation.   Your journey may feel difficult now, you may feel that ruin has actually ruined your life and that you will always be judged for it.  The good news is, is that Jesus went to the cross and gave forgiveness of sins.  He has a life set for you, He has plans for you.  Don't let ruin take over.... let Jesus have the take over!    

Sometimes we feel just like giving up, throwing in the towel and quitting.  However, God has plans for us and sees us in a whole different light to how we see ourselves. I hope you will be strengthened and encouraged with this message, and that you will continue to keep on going.  You could be on the cusp of victory for all manner of things in your life.  Keep on going. Do not give up, let the Lord strengthen you!
