I’m A Survivor
Romans 8:37, “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.”
Morning friends! Blessings to you today and always! Today is another day offered to us in which we can be a positive example or a negative one! Truth is we never want to be anything negative; nor do we ever want to cause someone else to be negative. Our positive life may be showing someone else that even through the worst moments, we find peace in trusting God. Today try to remember how many times you worked to achieve a goal whether in childhood, in youth, then as becoming an adult. Were there times you placed doubt above faith? Were there not times you just gave up? Eventually, as in everything, we will choose to bring forth the will to keep going! So, you fell trying to ride a bike, but did you stay off the bike or did you push yourself to get back up and master that task? Did you not waste time not studying for a test, failed it, but the next time you realized where your responsibility to pass would lead you? Sure, today we think back on school and know that we truly did not put our best foot forward, but today we are making up for the errors! Somewhere down deep we acknowledge our ability to do anything if we just trust in God to lead and guide! He can open up doors we thought were closed; allowing us opportunity after opportunity to succeed! We can then pull out those feelings of survival! Even in addiction; there are ways to survive if we trust in His promises. IF we push ourselves toward positive success, not to prove to the doubters, but to prove it to ourselves. We are good and wonderfully made, with abilities and talents unknown to anyone until we show them! The only person we need to really get approval from, is God Almighty! When He says, “well done my good and faithful servant”, you will have made it to the destination of a heavenly home! Be a survivor who wants to survive eternity in heaven!
