Life (BG)

no matter what happens throughout the course of our lives, there will never be a pause button

life will continue to pass regardless of any trials or tribulations we are going through

i have changed dramatically over the past 2 years (well it will be 2 years next month)

and it's all because of one reason... finding Jesus

i no longer worry about things i used to such as money and how will this ever happen

i have learned to enjoy the "finer" things of life

which to me are things like watching the baby learn the feeling of daddy's scruffy face

and watching someone's entire countenance change when hearing a testimony

some worldly people still have yet to understand me

and though the scales over their eyes may become frustrating

i have to step back and realize that i was the same way for 20 years

all i can do is pray for them.. and that can sometimes seem unbearable

it's such a blessing to watch life throw someone a curve ball

then God steps in and guides you in hitting a home run

just so the loaded bases can hurry home and be safe

which really upsets the enemy because now his ball is out of the park

so regardless of what type of ball comes at you

regardless of all the circumstances happening around you

stay focused on what's in front of you... the Lord

and forget about the crowd behind you because it will cause you to stumble

learning the ways of God can be such an adventure

of course we will always have "junk" to go through

but just knowing that Jesus went through it all and then was crucified because of His love for us

will give you a comfort and a sound mind that would otherwise be unobtainable

so don't let "life" get you down

enjoy the moments that upset you

because then you can look at Jesus for guidance

and in the end you become stronger
