Don't Let Your Setback Hold You Down...

So I am quite sure everyone was like oh she started another blog and fell off the wagon of updating but I promise you I really did not Jonathan has had me super busy lately. 

However today while at church and listen to my pastor who was brings word from Micah 7:8, which read Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me (KJV).  His subject was Your Setback Is Just A Setup For Your Come Back now at that point I felt something powerful hit me for you see while I’m still going through as Micah 7:8 says The LORD shall be a light unto me.   I had just gone through one of those seasons and not many knew about it as I had wanted it and truly, it was hard.  I could not think what I had done so wrong to be in that situation however to hear someone minister on it and actually preach on it I look at that time of darkness differently.  While in the mist of it I wasn’t sure of anything there were days I stressed losing my job for not being focused, days I stressed my electricity being shut off for nonpayment and there was nothing more I could do except just simply pray and praising.

While I am not out of the mist of my storm, God has shown me things that I never thought possible from making a way for me to get furniture, to getting a car that is paid for to simply making things happen that I didn’t think would happen.   So best, believe I am sowing seeds and speaking over them.  

Remember your time isn’t up until God says it is so even in the bottom of the 4^th with your team down 7 you still got a chance to make a COMEBACK don’t you dare GIVEUP.

The best part of this is you truly learn who your friends are and those who were there just to gossip and talk your business. For who can be against you when God is, for you remember when you are on the way back up to leave those friends behind and simply take your lifetime friends with you.

Those Who You Surround Yourself With

It's always said that those people in your life has a purpose for being there or simply they have a reason, season, or a lifetime but you have to be fully aware of your surroundings to know their place...  Read this statement and think of all of those people who have come into your life and think about where they fit.

People come into your life for a Reason, a Season or a Lifetime. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person. When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to end the relationship. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.

Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season!

LIFETIME relationships teach you a lifetime lessons, things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

We all have reasons, seasons or lifetimes in our life right now.  

The Key is making these Reasons a Lifetime!
