Today's Food for Thought (September 9, 2017)

"The difference between a good life and a bad life is how well you walk through the fire." - Carl Jung

Your best ever journey awaits you. Decide to battle through and push past your limitations, so then life opens to you and loosens your heart and makes you unafraid. Flee not from your fear or you will find that you have only taken a short cut to meet it again. Transform fear into fuel and fuel into courage which makes for a mighty fire that spreads sparks over the kindling of a stronger you. Set yourself aflame to the absolute peace of God within. For when you ask Him to strengthen your heart, He will give you the miracle to move forward in courage.

Our heavenly Father understands our disappointment, suffering, pain, fear, and doubt. He is always there to encourage our hearts and help us understand that He's sufficient for all of our needs. Life is a constant battle for survival. As we grow older, the rules change on daily basis. Our mission is not to escape, but to survive; not deal with triumph but to deal with failure; not to run away from fear, but to face or master it. It takes courage to keep on fighting. Deal them with greater faith and never ever to surrender. Life is unpredictable. Anything could just happen, it might be success or a mess, but for as long as we are leaning on the Lord's side, we will win because God never losses a battle. "Fear not, for I am with you", says the Lord.
