Just a Thought

I am convinced that we shall never be free of the anxiety, worry, stress, and adversity that await us each day. With every step of progress we make, there will come another adverse occasion, which like gravity, will pull against us, less we should finally become free of perplexities grasp. Those adverse occasions here that are “common to man,” are set in place so that we might never grow fond of this world. One great medicine for this found in the pages of scripture, is the admonition to set our minds on things above, on those things that are not of this world. With every struggle that comes our way, there is an opportunity to do so. Remember that with every struggle you face, God is at the same time, also giving you another real reason to long for home!
