A Life Worth Living Phil 4:6-9

A Life Worth Living Is A Life With A Guiltless Past Guilt is a terrible burden to bear and sometimes it crushes people to the point that life becomes a unbearable burden and they seek to end it - Acts 2:36-38; 16:22 If we can remove the sin, we can remove the guilt that it causes, and life becomes bearable again Jesus came to accomplish this - Jn 8:36; 3:16; Heb 10:22; 1 Jn 1:7; Rom 8:1

A Life Worth Living Has A Meaningful Present One of the most common causes of suicide is the feeling of accomplishing nothing in life Men's praises are not what's important - 1 Pet 4:2; Rom 6:4; 1 Tim 6:18-19; Tit 2:14 When we are involved in helping others, we have little time to think of ourselves and no excuse for feeling sorry for ourselves

A Life Worth Living Is A Life With A Fearless Future Many people kill themselves or seriously consider suicide because of what they fear the future will bring David, who had as much physical adversity as any could imagine - Psa 23:4 Paul knew where his future lie - 2 Tim 4:7-8 Jesus promised a better life - Jn 14:2-3
