Resilient, Flexible & Patient

As we go through life and experience the ups and downs of relationships, careers, finances or health issues we strive for that perfect ending; that happy ending of gal gets guy, the dream job, financial stability or doctor tells the patient they have a clean bill of health.

Many times over we share that sentimental thought of everything going just as we had planned. Yet, what we forget is that our purpose is to allow God to lead us to His plan and we need to be resilient, flexible and patient.

Living our lives with God’s guidance allows us to be of service, to hear His call and follow His commandments. We all struggle with our day to day commitments however we have a loving God who understands our weaknesses and His mercy and grace are continual.

Let’s remember that happy is fleeting but joy is ever after. Joy fills our souls with His love and forgiveness as we truly then appreciate all our Lord has done for us. We are able to recognize the gift of eternity and that happy ending.

Psalm 139:2-4 Search me (thoroughly), O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there is any wicked or hurtful way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

Our faith is strong as we trust in God. Go forth following the path God has planned and let’s put our selfish ways behind us.

Smiles & Blessings,
