Isaiah 26:3, “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee:
because he trusteth in thee.”
Do you
have an unwanted debt?
Do you
have any troubles?
And for
some maybe troubles on more sides than one?
Have
people said or done some things that hurt you?
For some
of us to be burdened by something or someone has been going on for so long we
have began to believe that this is the way it is supposed to be. We start to think that it just can't get
better, that we will forever be assigned to this station of gloom and troubles
and peril.
Along the
way in life we have had many teachers.
We have been taught what to do and what not to do. We have been taught basic math, science and
english and even some Bible. Some of us
received formal training in a specialized field of endeavor, like health care,
masonry, carpentry, mechanics or
management. Some of us have a high
school diploma, some college , others a masters degree or a PhD.
We have
learned a great many things, some to our credit and some to our shame.
One look
around and we can see how busy we are as a people. For some of us our day, our week, our entire
year or longer is mapped out with little or no room for change or diversion.
Some of
us have spent more time thinking about what we cannot do, haven/t done or
won't ever
have the chance to
do - more
than thinking about what we can do.
Some of
us have dreams or goals that take us beyond our current circumstances. Do you fit this category? Some of us have tried to break away from
whatever it is holding us back only to find an invisible elastic band attached
to it drawing us back again and again.
How would
you like to have the power to overcome the circumstances and see your goals and
dreams come to pass?
