I know we may all wish that life was a cake walk.That we can just stroll through life with ease, but we can't.
Everyday something happens.
Everyday someone struggles.
Everyday someone falls.
But everyday someone also hears about God.
Everyday someone overcomes.
Everyday someone is saved.
I know at times, especially for me, it feels like things can't get any worse.
There's a million and one things coming at me all at one time.
Sometimes it's easier to just curl up and shut out the world.
Or to just give in to the enemy.
But in the end, that really benefits no one.
When tough times come flooding in, the only person who can hold you up is God.
Turn to Him when you become overwhelmed and you will overcome.
He will guide you through the struggles and never leave your side.
Without struggle there is no strength and without strength there is no story.
Everyday is a lesson for us, every bump in the road is something to learn from.
The things you go through shape you into the person you will become.
They are chapters in your story.
That being said, let no one tell you that you can't overcome your past.
Use your experiences to connect to someone who's going through the same thing.
Let that be the guiding light in you reaching others.
Take your past, accept it and learn from it.
With God, nothing can hold you back.
As the song goes,
"You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade."
Don't let who you were dictate who you will be.
Don't let past decisions or mistakes run your life.
Never say you aren't good enough to be a Christian,
or reach others because of what you did at one time.
Use it as a testimony.
Show them that no matter how bad they mess up, there is forgiveness.
There is a lot of things out there the devil will tempt us with.
Be strong not only in your faith and walk,
but in those you associate with.
We've been through it, we are here to help.
And I am in no way saying I am perfect,
I still have temptations and weaknesses, I've just learned to look out for them.
I can stand my ground against them.
And I focus on my strengths because I don't want them to become weaknesses.
This song shows that you are not alone, but can overcome.
