We may think we cannot do many things
when we are burdened down and in great pain. We may think we have no choices.
We may think there is no end to our plight. We may think we cannot deal with
things as they are. However, when we are in the deepest darkness, we must be
willing to admit we can be wrong and we must be willing to admit we can be
deceived. When we think we have no choice, we must be honest. For when we have
Christ alive within us, He gives us the power to do many things we cannot
normally do when we are burdened down. When we have Christ in our life, our
pain may not stop, but our victory over the pain can still be achieved. When we
have Christ in our life, we have many more choices than we think we have if we
are honest about how things are and what we have done and not done. When we
have Christ in our life, there is for us a great and victorious end to our
plight. In Christ, there are victories to be won every minute. In Christ, there
are triumphant moments every moment. In Christ, we have won even when we seem
to have been pounded down in utter defeat. In Christ, the trials and heartaches
of this life grow dim as we come to Him seeking His healing love. In our life,
there is more to life than the reality of our trauma and tragedy. In our life, we
have a mountain of great power where we can go and kneel down in prayer. In our
life, our mountain of great power is a place called Calvary. On Calvary, a
place where Christ suffered more than we have suffered or will suffer, our
victory over every moment of our trauma and tragedy was won. On Calvary, Christ
died to set us free forever.
Wow this really makes me sit and think. Nothing I go threw will ever compare to what my Lord has gone threw.
