There was a movie years ago titled "City Slickers". The premise of the movie was that there was a group of people with various challenges/disappointments/problems in their lives that go to a cattle ranch and spend a week herding cattle. During the week, they find answers to their dilemmas and they come back resolved to make amends and the necessary changes to guarantee success.
The old hardened cowhand is named Curly, and he gives the main character, Billy Crystal, a line that explains things to him. He tells Billy's character that you have to find that one thing in your life worth going through life for. Crystal's character asks what that one thing is. Curly tells him that it is different for everyone (you have to find your one thing).
Today's word is just a saying that I really like, which says, "When GOD is your Reason to Live, you will never have a reason to quit."
The truth is, we all have to find that one thing that motivates us to keep on keeping on. And, while that one thing might be a spouse, a child, a whatever, the fact is, that it ALL comes from GOD. If we will make GOD our Reason, we will always have that one thing that keeps us moving.
While the movie was made for Hollywood and had some decent messages, the fact is that GOD is the Reason we are here. If we will continue to serve Him and do His good will, we will always have a reason to keep going. Yeah, GOD is that One thing.
Be Blessed,
