How to Overcome

How to Overcome

You and your spouse not getting along?  The answer is a common goal, a common purpose.

Your children driving you crazy?  The answer is a life mission that you can model for them.

Is your job boring, or not what you dreamed of?  The answer is to not work for yourself.

Are you strangled by addiction?  The answer is fellowship, community, and belonging.

Has a handicap followed you since you can remember?  The answer is rejoicing in your strengths, not your weaknesses.

Is your mortality hard to accept?  The answer is being thankful for where you have been, and excited about where you are going.

The answer is focusing your life on loving and serving God, as well as other people.

You may not agree, and that’s ok – but I think the answer is Jesus.

Psalm 34:18: 

The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit.
