Life is just but an array of trials and tribulations which seem almost impossible to break free from. Many a times, we find ourselves in situations which are straining, disheartening and just the perfect excuse to give up on life. That’s life! It is then, in perfect sense, more reason why we do not want to be stuck in these impasses. By virtue of being humans, we envision life as a walk in the park…a mere garden of roses. When we experience the brutality of life’s contemplations, that is when we feel the whole world crumbling down on us.
However, these gruesome situations, difficult as they seem are nothing but your vehicle to your breakthrough, transport to greatness and most importantly, to your deliverance. We often find ourselves stuck in situations which seem to take forever but the longer it takes, the more perfected it becomes. We find ourselves in certain predicaments, not because God has turned His back on us, but simply because He is making us ready for greatness.
Beware! Not for the faint hearted….people often miss their blessings simply because they are not bold enough to endure the misfortunes. They do not have the courage to fight, the courage to look forward to everyday.
The secret lies in knowing which battles to fight and also knowing when and how to react. Difficult and nearly impossible as they seem, no situation is permanent. Every situation, every impediment will at some point crumble and blossom into greatness but it only depends on how you plan on overcoming it.
Going through challenges is meant to give you strength and the ability to react to the problems. Should such befall you when you are already up the ladder, it will be easy to deal with but if you experience those challenges for the first time when you are already up the ladder, falling off will be inevitable.
Remember, we are more than conquerors through Christ who strengthens us and the Lord has in perfection plans, tailor made for everyone, plans not to harm us but rather, to give us life and in abundance. Just put everything to God, elevate your faith and He will surely point you to the direction of your breakthrough. Remember, the journey is not for the faint hearted so brace yourself for a challenge….go back to GOD, surrender all to Him, watch and pray….then see if He will disappoint.
