I have lost my edge! Have you? How do you keep going on?
Recently, I have struggled with neck pain and now my stomach is bothering me. Instead of giving my sickness, aches and pains to the Lord, I have become obsessed with it. I think of nothing else but the pain I feel. I am tired, I am in pain and I am fed up. Did God ever tell us he was fed up with us? To get out of His kingdom? No, he continues to see thru all the garbage we throw at him and that we throw at each other. I have been throwing so much garbage out, I have lost my way, I have buried myself in it.
In the story of the talents which Jesus bestowed upon several men. Two of them increased their talents but the third man buried it. He gave his talent back without taking a risk to help himself. You can ask yourself, “What have I done with the light? With my gifts?
I have lost my talents and my way because I focused on myself, I became selfish. Each day is a blessing, your gifts are a blessing and they are to be shared with others. Don’t squander them or use them all on yourself. Be bold share your stories, your life and your talents. For those who give receive more in return. It’s funny how when I give myself to others my troubles and pain seem to diminish. [Be grateful]
