How do you do it?
You get up every morning, get yourself ready for another day.
None of us knows what the next 24 hours holds.
Hoping for the best we put our shoulder to the wheel. Terrible news of the death of a loved one, possible retirement, or a spouse that has betrayed your trust.
The giants seem to stand around you, each one waiting for a chance to use you as a punching bag. Powerless and almost hopeless, you just want to survive. How do you do it?
Some people live in denial, others reach for the bottle. Can God make a difference? For me, knowing that He knows makes a difference. Knowing that He cares makes a difference, knowing that He can reach into my situation makes a difference. I am not helpless and my situation is not hopeless.
I must do what I can and leave the rest to Him. So yes, I get up, I get ready and I get going. My strength is to know that I am not alone.
God is with me. If you cannot face today, if your world is getting you down, don’t give up. Give it your all with His help.
Imagine the day when your giant becomes your punching bag.
