When life throws you a curve ball do you swing and try to
hit a home run or do you let it go by and hope the umpire calls it a ball
instead of a strike. Sometimes it's good to let the pitcher throws 4 balls and makes it easy for you to just walk to first base.
In life sometimes we find ourselves in situations that can
be very stressful and traumatic. We find ourselves having difficulty holding on
to our peace and joy, because we are constantly feeling the need to please
people and live up to their desires and wishes for our life. Sometimes we find ourselves living to please others and we forget about ourselves. God sees right through
all of this he want’s us to be at rest. He says that my yoke is easy and my
burden is light. The word says that he never gives us more than we can bear,
but with the temptation he always gives a way of escape.
God’s plan for our
lives is that we will prosper and be in good health. But sometimes like Jonah
we go off into places and things that GOD never called us to be involved with.
And then at times it feels like we are being thrown overboard because we don’t
fit in that place or circumstance that we got ourselves into. But God is
gracious and merciful he doesn’t leave us in a place that’s not for us he moves
us into what he has for us. He encourages us to use our talents and gifts. The
word says our gifts will make room for us. We are to work with the talents and gifts that
He has given to us. There is a particular anointing that GOD wants us to flow in
where is doesn’t require us to strive or work so hard at. It’s an anointing that
cause us to move with ease and flow naturally with our gift. Anytime we find
ourselves constantly striving or dealing with so much frustration and heartache then that
thing is not for us. We are not called to be in a place of confussion or strife
we are called to a place of peace and joy.
A place where the fruits of the Spirit are
abundant. Move into that place that GOD
has for you. It’s a place where he said if you abide in me and I in you then
you will bear much fruit. He says you are the vine and I am the branches. Stay connected to the True Vine!
