In the process of growing we gain responsibility and knowledge to do what is profitable and good. We learn to accept the truth for what it is and to deal with our failures as stepping stones unto a better way and condition. Circumstances, good or bad, are only the criterion we have been given; they are our starting point, the place of our beginning. They will lead us to a place of truth and prosperity or they will take us down that adverse road of denial and rejection; the choice is ours we are not initially condemned to failure and defeat. The grass is not always greener where we are not permitted to stand and if we choose to excuse our ignorance by our lack of opportunity, then we will always live bitter and discouraged lives. Life is never lived in the future it is here and now. We must plan for what is ahead but we do not plan by giving up the expectations or opportunities we a given in the present. Do not be amazed at who God is, show your amazement at what He has done and at what He has promised to do. You cannot make God more or less than what He already is but you can, by His unending love and grace, meet Him at that place where you can avail yourself of His remarkable compassion and love. In God grace, accomplishment and potential are only limited by your unwillingness to serve and without His help and acceptance all that you can accomplish will amount to naught. When we reach the end it should not be greeted with reservation and doubt, wondering what happened, where did it all go? Memories in many cases are just as important, if not more so that opportunities because they have taken what could be and made them reality, made them something we could see as prosperous and important. In life, our choices make reality what it is. The responsible is ours to squander or to treasure, to waste or to guard as significant and needed. Drain yourself with excitement not despair; place your expectations upon God and not upon this world. He can give you what no one else can give. His anticipation of you will not leave you unfulfilled and doubting. He is not one that is uncaring and unconcerned. “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:9). In the presence of almighty God all doubt becomes the action of fools, it only shows ones ignorance and inability and unwillingness to comprehend. GLH www.myownmelodyllc.com
