Don't give up. The Lord disciplines those He Loves.

"No Discipline is enjoyable while it is happening-its painful!  But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way." Hebrews 12:11

 Why is this happening to me?   A question many of us are dealing with.  The Lord works in mysterious ways and sometimes his work entails us to fall on our knees, broken and beaten.  The key to surviving these trials is to keep the faith.  If we can withstand the onslaught of the world and the negative thoughts by staying committed to God and our Faith, then we have learned an invaluable lesson.

 The lesson is realizing that God is on our side. The God that we serve uses broken things.  A broken ground is the only ground that can produce a harvest. Maybe these last few years your life has been a mess and giving up has been a controlling thought.  But if your Faith is still intact know that Gods discipline has been the tiller that has stirred the soil preparing a good foundation for a plentiful harvest. Your finest hour is now in front of you.  The best is yet to be.  I want you to stop living your life looking in a rear view mirror remembering how good things used to be.  Lift up your heads and rejoice.  This is your life-kick the bad away.. Do not be discouraged. Release the heavy load that burdens you.  Heaven awaits all Gods children who endure.

Peace!
