Lead us Home

It isn't always easy to just keep on keeping on. This world has a way of wearing you out, wearing you down, and kicking you at your lowest. It seems, sometimes, that the only reason to get back up is just to be knocked down again.

But, we all know the saying, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." And, there is certainly some validity to that. It is certainly true that each trial we overcome, each challenge we pass through makes us more ready to face the next. But, I also think there is more...

Today's word is Hebrews 10:36, NIV, which reads, "You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of GOD, you will receive what He has promised."

We will face those times of struggles and constant challenges in our lives, and we will need perseverance to make it through. And, the only way to have the strength, stamina, and perseverance to make it through the challenges of tomorrow is to get through the ones today. It is just like building physical muscle, you have to push through today and build it up for tomorrow.

I feel as though I have really rambled today, and I apologize. I simply want to say that trials will come. We need perseverance to get through them all. We know GOD is with us each step of the way, which gives us strength. And, each time we push through, with GOD's strength, we are more prepared for the next trial. And, one day, that perseverance will lead us home.

Be Blessed,

Mickey T
