          "We are about to lose everything" she said.

What can you say to someone who is about to lose everything?

It is in times like these that I ask God to speak for me.


I have been there and this is what I learned.


"My friend, they can take away all of my things.
They can repossess my car and they have. They can kick me out of my home, but I will find shelter again. They can fire me and they have.

But they cannot stop me from believing someone else can better appreciate my talents.

They can't take away everything.

They can't take away my faith in God.

Only I can give that up.

Only I can give into the pressures of the world and declare my life over, myself a failure.

But I am not.

I am alive though I've been beaten down at times.

I am strong in my belief that God has a plan for me even though I have questioned Him at times in my despair.

My eyes were swollen from constant crying and I could not see His plan before me.

But I have risen above it all.

I have rebounded the next day, when my pain had eased a bit and I could see again the path clearly marked for me to travel.


It will not be easy.
God does not make life easy for those who believe in Him.

But He makes living it a blessing.

God makes the road rough so that we will be stronger in our resolve.

God makes the road long so that we will walk farther by His side.

But God makes the journey worthwhile, for in the end, if I have stayed the course, I will see eternal days of joy and happiness.
