Life…

From a friend 🙂

“Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there. Some to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be, perhaps even a complete stranger. But when you lock your eyes with them you know at that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way. And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would never realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart. Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of luck. Illness, injury, lost moments of true greatness, and even stupidity all occur to test the limits of your Spirit. Without these tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and pointless.

Your Heavenly Father crosses your path with those you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience help to create who you become. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, the are probably the most important ones. If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, forgive them for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious when you open your heart. If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to ALL things. Make every day count!!! Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possible can for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your goals high. Be humble. Be Christ-like in your thoughts, words, and deeds.

My thoughts and prayers are that you thank God for ALL things, especially crossing your path with those whom become a positive impact on your life. Ask our Lord to help you seek His Face, His Will and Purpose for your life on earth. That you also are used as His Instrument to cross your path with others to help them, to encourage them, and to complete them to increase His Kingdom. In Jesus’ Name. Thy Will be done. Amen. Peace.”
