Have you heard the news? There is life out here waiting for you. One must be careful not to cherish these earthly blessings so much that once taken from us we feel like we are in total despair. I mean how can we hang our head low when we have a God Who sits high and cares for us deeply? Don't get me wrong, I know when troubles come that sadness or anger is usually the main attitude we have during the situation. We may pout, shut down, or cry initially which is fine. That is normal, but we shouldn't dwell in those attitudes. At some point we have to wake up, get dressed, and get ready for life. Because our real treasures are in Heaven, right? Not in these temporal matters, but in our permanent Home.
Job (in the Bible) can definitely attest that trials only prove how faithful, strong, and caring our God is to His people. Just as the quote states, it makes no sense to look for happiness in things that can easily go away which are jobs, other people, and material possessions. Why not anchor your joy in more permanent things? Heavenly things which will give you constant Hope no matter what comes your way. So, don't allow ended relationships, a bad test score, setbacks, or losing a job keep you down. Yes, all of those can get you down, but do not let it keep you down. There is life after whatever you may be going through. A life full of promise. A life filled with blessings. Our minds are powerful instruments. With it, we can decide whether we are happy, sad, mad, and the list continues. The more Word our mind has knowledge of (from God) the more capable we are at seeing the life after... A life sculpted and ready for you by God's own Hands. Just continue to let Him guide you and go get your life! The life God desires for you, to trust Him through it all. #FF #LifeAfter
