Keep Pushing On


If the weight of this world is a constant reminder that you are in desperate need for God to show up daily in your life, don't worry, you are on the right path. If you feel like you are always praying for strength and endurance to go through situations in life, don't worry, your praying, so you are on the right path. Although all of us can and do have bullets shot at us from time to time, it is comforting to know that God is our bullet proof vest, extending grace to the least of us. In your pursuit and journey with God, building a person and meaningful relationship, no matter how difficult it becomes, no matter the distance or space you may feel wedged between you and God, keep running the race. Keep pushing on. You are fighting a worthy fight! If you realized and really understood how much is being thrown at us each day, you might be able to appreciate the small victories with God. We are constantly being told how to live our lives from television, music and even sermons. There is so much information, ideas, suggestions and input being shoveled into our brains and hearts that it can be overwhelming and daunting if we allow it. Yes, ALLOW it. Our goal should be to keep God's word in its purest form and to not cloud His promises and truths. Instead, cling to Scripture, prayer and a healthy body of Christ to be a constant reminder of who we are called to be and the worth our Father has installed in us. Keep pushing on, you are on the right path. While it may be easier to explain to someone else how much they need God, even though they really might be desperate for Him, try your best to look into the mirror and work on letting God renew your mind and spirit first. "You can have pleasure in life but you can't live on pleasure alone, without ever partaking in discipline in order to be a balanced person" {Joyce Meyer's} Personally become a balanced person so that you can assist in changing the world around you, when God makes a time available for you to do so. If you are serving the One True God, you are on the right path!

Keep pushing on.

I give everything over to You Lord
