Life Goes on

Real talk! No matter what you are going through, life really does go on. Trials and tribulations are meant to come to bring something out if us that doesn't need to be there and to produce in something that is lacking. We certainly don't get to orchestrate the way each season of our lives play out but trust and believe that you will go on. You may be a better person for it. You will definitely be wiser from the experience. 

There is always going to be something happening. That BFF you thought would be a forever person in your life just stops communicating, the job that looks secure suddenly downsized you right out of a position, the spouse you thought you'd grow old with deserts you, or for some reason, you lose all your material things....all reasons to think about throwing in the towel. After days/weeks/months if panting, groaning and complaining. Realization sets in and you understand that you are still here. Your life has gone in and do has everyone else's. 

One step forward each and everyday is all you need to realize that your life goes on. It's also one step further away from the pain you feel from whatever hurt you deeply. God told is that trials would come. He also to us to count it all joy. That part is really difficult for all of us. The sooner we do choose joy over pain, we are winning the battle. The enemy wants us to stay tripped up. He wants nothing more than for us to stay stuck in our mess. If we do, there is no message to share to bless others. Weeping endures for a night. Not a week, months, or years. A night. But joy comes in the morning. The Word is clear, we are not to dwell on our pain and sorrow. We aren't even supposed to carry one days anger over into another. God already knew.....life goes on. We just need to grab hold of that and trust His plan-the one for good, not harm. 

Be encouraged. Life goes on. He sees your tears and knows your pain. Count it all joy, seek His Will, and trust the process. Your testimony will be a source if blessing and encouragement to yourself and others.
