Life Goes On
Living in a life that is less than perfect is the category most of us fit in to. When thinking about how life at times can be less desirable and frustrating, I also must think about how many times not matter how hard, or ugly life was I made it out alive and most of the time better then when the hell started. Why is that? Why is it that many times when we go through the toughest times in our lives that we think this is the worst thing I have ever been through, and I’m going to die where I am at? When if we step outside ourselves and look at the circumstance we will see that it’s all going to work out. It is going to be fine, and most likely we will learn a lesson that will not only help us, but many we come in contact with throughout our life time will also benefit and be encouraged by our troubles. Life Must Go On!
I’m writing this because in the last two years of my life I have seen heartache, hardship, and what I thought was failure. Many times through it I could not seen the positive, could not see the light at the end of the tunnel. In this I found myself trying to run into my own understanding, trying to create a new life for myself. When that is not what I was meant to do. Creating a new life for your self is okay, if it is in the confines of God’s will. I found myself looking for success and momentary happiness to be the answer, instead of seeking God wholeheartedly for the correct answers. Don’t get me wrong I was still seeking God but on my terms, and in my own way. Often we want God in our game plan, and to work on our schedule and on our task list. Unfortunately it does not work that way… because God is able to see outside the confines of our little minds and know what is best for the long run. This is not saying that it is going to be a great experience, and that this was what God desired from the get go for your life. Many times we screw up, or others we are connected with screw up and it effects our lives. The great thing about God is that just because something bad happens and alters our lives does not mean that God is going to throw us to the wolves per say. But He will take the difficult areas of our lives and if we are truly willing to surrender to Him, He will work it all out for good.
We must have the attitude that no matter what happens in life, if we know our calling, know our purpose we will not give up but continue forward, asking for blessing, direction, and a newness in the Spirit. Life Must Go On! Let’s make that our theme that Life Must Go On! God is going to work through us if we desire to see what He can do. I do not know about you but I have decided I can’t give up. I’m not a quitter, I have a calling, a purpose, and I must fulfill what God has for me, no matter what detours there are now or in the future God is faithful to complete His plan. Let’s rise up and take our giftings and use them for the building of the kingdom where ever we are!
Life Must Go On!
