You Can Be The Victor

Are you hurting ~ physically, emotionally, or mentally? Did you know that you can increase or decrease the intensity of your pain by the way you handle it.

I know from experience and the Word of God that it is possible to be the victor instead of the victim. The key thing to see is that the victory is "through Christ". If you and I can learn how to lean on God and receive from Him whatever we need, we truly can do all things Christ who strengthens us. (Philippians 4:13).

God is more than enough for any situation. He has promised to enable us and to be our helper. As we come into close fellowship with Him, spending time with Him, and talking with Him in a simple familiar way ~ we begin to draw strength from Him.

The number one thing that I learned, was that I had to lean on the Lord to strengthen me. The second thing I learned was not to talk about the problem or even think about it unless absolutely necessary. The more you talk and think about your problems, the bigger they become and then weakness set in, and before long, here comes depression.

Whatever you may be going through right now, keep your eyes and your conversation on the Lord and off your situation. Remember ~ this too shall pass.

"Nay in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us." Romans 8:37
