Life Has a Way Of
posted by: ShonBaconWritten this morning while praying and thinking…
Life has a way of making you look all around – seeing what others are doing, seeing who’s keeping pace, seeing who’s sprinted ahead of you–leaving you in the dust.
Life has a way of making you worry – will you get all your bills paid, will you get that job to keep your house, will you have money to send your children to college, will you be able to retire and have something to live off of.
Life has a way of making you not see life – no time to stop and literally smell the rose, no time to look up into a blue-blue sky and marvel at its tranquil beauty, no time to look people in the eye and say, “I just wanted you to know I love you and appreciate you for being in my life.”
Life has a way of making you think you can’t win – your friends backstab you, your mate cheats on you, your bank account goes into the negative, your job decides to downsize, your mother takes ill and makes you remember that life on earth isn’t for always.
Life has a way of making you forget that you have already WON.
There is no need to look all around you as you run this race called life. No need to see where others are and how you measure up because in this race, you already have the gold medal; you’re just getting the opportunity to see how you win…not IF you’ll win.
There is no need to worry because though valleys in life are low, mountains are high and your win will have you on the highest mountain peak ever created.
There is no need to rush through life because face it, there is no guarantee how long you’re going to be on earth, so you might as well appreciate what’s around you, who’s around you while you can.
There is no need to think you can’t win because you have already WON. You are already the victor, the champion. You are already the head and not the tail.
You are already the captain of your destiny.
If you have faith.
If you walk in that faith.
If you remember who your Father is and remember He will never forsake you.
Life has a way of taking life from you, but with your Father, YOU become the embodiment of LIFE. You ARE the life. Grab yourself, love yourself, and thank your Father for allowing you to have the victorious life that is yours TODAY and ALWAYS — if you have the faith to claim it.
