“Though God Is Almighty, He Doesn’t Send Rain From A Clear Sky.”
Let’s Blog Over Life…
I receive a lot of messages and emails daily, but there was one that really stood out to me. The message was from a very sweet reader. She’s been following me and has looked up to me for awhile. Life has thrown her some very tough situations recently, and she was feeling really down, and just needed some words of encouragement.
FAITH & LIFE
One thing we need to all understand is that you can’t control what life throws at you, but you can control how you respond. How you respond? Easier said than done, right? Absolutely. However, choose life, even when it’s hard and especially when it hurts. Trust me… there comes a time when life really hurts.
Things will happen. Life will throw things at you that you can’t avoid. There will be pain, disappointments, breakups, fights, backstabbing and betrayals. But you are the architect of your own character.
Here is a true lesson for all, no one can control the experiences life throws at them, but everyone can control their response. The response to your experiences determines the outcome of your life. Interruptions in our lives are designed to reveal character in us. Your character in these moments is a reflection of your faith. Live in F A I T H. Take note.
Have a blessed week family!
Well said love! Thank you for sharing those beautiful words. I love how people can have an impact in our lives no matter what they are going through. Often times the one’s in pain are the one’s that help us the most. They help us reflect on our own situation and remind us to be grateful every day because no matter what we are going through someone else is going through something much more painful or much more sacrificial than us. Keep sharing your heart. Love it! Have a blessed day!
Hi Marlyn!
I absolutely agree. I’ve realized recently that even in our own times of hard trials others may look at us and seeing the good, and experiencing tough situations that have them not feeling so great. Sometimes we have to put our feelings and what we’re going through aside to help others. To bless others.
Thanks for reading!
