THE CLOUDS AND RAIN WILL COME...
A rainy weekend at the beach doesn't mean you can't have a good time or thrive. That's my most recent experience since I was just at the beach, but take the "beach factor "out and put in your most recent cloudy day experience. Rain clouds don't get rid of the sun....they mask it. It's still there shining brightly! It's within our power to make the best of a less than ideal situation by deciding that we want it to be positive.
WE, ALONG WITH OUR BELIEF IN GOD, CAN AFFECT CHANGE IN OURSELVES AND OTHERS...
We possess that power within! Bosses annoy us and take advantage of their authority, babies cry uncontrollably, spouses hurt our feelings and misunderstand us....some even cheat and deceive, people take advantage of us. All manner of less than ideal situations arise in life and we can't control them. What we can control is the way we react. We decide how the clouds are going to affect us and our sunny expectations. Yes, it does sound kind of like I took an Eckhart Tolle class or am
trying to tap my inner power source, but your level of spirituality does
make a difference in how you see some of the tough, uphill battles you
face. It's also biblical.
Philipians 4:11b-12 "For I have learned to be content whatever the circumstance. I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned
the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full
stomach or empty, with plenty or little."
MY INNER LIGHT WILL SHINE REGARDLESS BECAUSE OF MY FAITH AND TRUST IN GOD...
We go through things and sometimes our friends and family just can't imagine how we do it. Well, Mary Mary coined it....It's the God in me. It's not just my human, fallible, overwhelmed, unmotivated, uninspired, insecure, uncertain flesh. If it were, then clouds would have me depressed, downtrodden, shaken, bowed down and maybe even dead. I choose to love God, trust and believe in God and live God.
What will you do in your rainy season?
