The Easy Life

Ah, the easy life. Easy street. What a great place to be? Are you there? I know I'm not. Everyday is a challenge, everyday is a work in progress. It's never easy, but it's at least always interesting. It keeps us on our toes for sure. Life can be easy if we let it be. Let the worries and stress of each day roll off your shoulders and move forward. Move ahead of your difficult situations and stay in front of them. Don't get behind it and let it slow you down or hinder you. Samson had his eyes gouged out and was put to work as a slave. But he got ahead of that situation and found the strength one more time to defeat the Philistines. Joseph was in a cistern, sold as a slave, promoted in Egypt, sent back to prison and finally promoted again. If he had wallowed in his difficult situation he would still be a slave in Egypt. Get out ahead of your difficult situation and you manage it rather than it managing you. You give direction to your life, not your situation.

Go!
