There
comes a time in everyone’s life when we are challenged by certain events. It
may be an auto accident or the death of a loved one, or you may be fired from a
job, maybe going through a divorce- all of which are life changing events. Even
though sometimes we may be knocked off our feet by an event I say that's not
the time to sit, that's the time we must rise up and meet the challenge. We've
all had the wind knocked out of us at some time or another, but staying down or
throwing a pity party or sticking your head in the stand will avail you
nothing. It is this time we must rely on God above to pull us through and we
rise up and find answers to our problems. If we just believe that God will help
us we feel better, we feel encouraged, we find new strength, we also find doors
will start to open when we apply ourselves. There have been lots of people that
have gone through life changing experiences and learn to overcome. I remember
reading about a blind man who was a mountain climber. A girl who had her arm
bitten off by a shark yet she still surfs. Christopher Reeves who became a quad
did not stop his life because of his circumstances; he became an advocate and
helped change the lives of many. You see with God as your guide you have an
unlimited source of strength and power. All you have to do is rise up and tap
into that power. You will find that you can go further than you ever expected.
The enemy only wants to blind you and confuse you by bad events that happen in
you life, but God will take those very events to groom you and make you
stronger. So I say don't sit, and focus on your circumstance, but rather RISE
UP and tap into the source and move on.
Thank you my name is
Jasper.
