Look Beyond The Now...
It is easy in life when we face hard work, setbacks, suffering and hardships to give up when we feel like we just can’t go on any longer or there is no use to carry on. Often during these times we cry out to God seeking some relief and we can’t understand why we don’t receive faster results in our suffering. There is never a point that God is not with us and when we face obstacles in our life all the Lord is wanting is for each of us to rely on Him instead of ourselves or even others.
The longer that we hold on to our pains or try to hold things together on our own without turning them over to God the longer Satan will keep us in the same repetitive cycles that will continue to hold us back in life. For Satan does not want us to ever overcome our issues because he knows that the longer we focus on the negatives that they will only rob us of the positives.
As we learn in the book of James we should be encouraged when difficulties come our way because they help develop our patience and character by teaching us to trust God and to look for ways to honor Him in our negative times. I challenge you today and every other day to look beyond your daily obstacles and learn to trust God in every circumstance no matter what you face. For there is a peace beyond understanding when we learn to rely on God rather than ourselves…amen
