Man oh man, when things get rough, things get tough. During these times of roughness, I feel like I'm on an airplane going through turbulence. You know that feeling of uncontrollable shakiness on the airplane, you don't know what's gonna happen, then you look around and see those who are used to the turbulence, and others are afraid, and then those who are just looking to see other people facial expressions. You don't know if the plane is gonna make it or fall. However, 9 times out of 10 the plane makes it through, and when it lands on the ground I say to myself, "whoa, that wasn't bad at all I feel so much better". In the midst of going through your circumstances and situations, you know its only temporary, however, because so much is going on, it tends to cloud the knowing that it will be alright. I'm reminded by this gospel song by Vickie Winans, called "Long As I Got King Jesus, I Don't Need Nobody Else".
In this song she talks about how people have lied on her, talked about her, did all kinds of mean things towards her, she talks about everything a person goes through in LIFE. However, in the midst of it all, she has King Jesus. I was recently lied on and because of it, I'm in the midst of loosing my job. I've been at this job for 6 six years and when I tell you that most of the people there love me, they truly do, and there are some people who just don't. Whenever I'm going through some trying times, I'm always reminded of the troubling water, and in this troubling water there's my healing. In my healing there's a breakthrough. We go through things to have a breakthrough moment in our lives. LIFE gets tough for some of us, and it seems as if it will never end. If we never go through the birthing process of what's on the inside, the pain, the agony, the frustration, the holding on, the never giving up, the fight, then we'll never get to the next level of our destiny. So in my troubling water I pray for those who lied on me, and I ask King Jesus to bless them anyway as if they never did me wrong, or falsely accuse me. With it being resurrection weekend and all this happening recently last Thursday, says a lot right now to me. He says forgive them for they know what not they do. He says I'm here for you no matter what happens, and I will comfort you in the midst of all calamity. He says hold on because in the midst of this birthing process there's a breakthrough of prosperity. I have the opportunity to always look at challenges of LIFE two ways, positive or negative. I always make sure I look at things from a positive stand point no matter how hard or how much I may be going through. I don't see myself loosing a job, I see myself gaining something much greater than a job. I see my job letting me go, because maybe I'm afraid to let go, to do much greater things for Him. Will these trial and tribulations ever end? No, they're not supposed too. If they did, what's our purpose here? I'm grateful for my troubling water, even though when they come, they come HARD. See we never really know why things happen. We know things happen for a reason, and truthfully they happen for all good reasons. Always remember in the midst of your circumstances and situations there is greatness in store for you! There is abundance and prosperity in store for you! There is something on the inside that must be released! Hold on, and know that He is always there no matter what happens!!
