Sometimes you’ve got to reach out, turn the knob, force the door open and step through to the other side. It’s this little thing we call faith. It’s action. It’s movement. It’s trust. I don’t think God wants me to stand in the hallway waiting for Him to open all the doors. He wants me to have enough trust in Him to take some initiative. He wants me to jiggle some handles and pick some locks and pry into some places. Satan wants me to think I can’t go because the door didn’t magically fling open the moment I stepped in front of it.
Life has two sides....Because God loves us so much, He gives us a free will and a choice to which side our thoughts will be focused on....the negative or the positive.
Focusing on the negative gets us no where. It accomplishes nothing.
Focusing on the positive fills our lives with joy and hope. It also shows that there is something different about us. When we choose to focus on the good that God has placed in our lives, we are being a living example for Him. We are showing others that there is more to our lives than just outward circumstances.
When we choose to look at the everyday ordinary and find God within the rubble, we are being a witness for Him. We are telling others that He is more than enough, that He is indeed all we need to be truly happy.
