lifes problems..

when God throws a problem at you at a thousand miles an hour its time to step up to the plate... show him your faith can overcome anything. show him that you are the person he created you to be. we are capable of so much and sometimes it isnt anyone else but ourselves that are holding us back from growing... we may be scaredof what people will think.. scared to take a risk , scared to put our neck on the chopping block. if you think about it... even if you are not a christian.. why does it matter what others think? if we are all going to die one day.. and it wont matter then. why should it matter now?  as a christian it only matters to me what God thinks.. and generally what makes him happy isnt too appealing to those of the world. but as i was saying.. when you are thrown a problem stand up and work through it.. day by day, pray.. it does help. i have a personal story i am goin gto share to prove my point.. i was homeless for almost three months. for a couple weeks i was living in my car with all of my belonging...every night i would pray that God would provide for me... and he did.. people at a local bar invited me over for dinner, and they had a potluck every Sunday... he provided for me with food even though i may not have been able to eat during the day he provided for me every night! not only that but as you can imagine, i had no job. so i also prayed and prayed that i would get hired at this gym as a salesman.. and a week after i applied i got it.. a really good job i might add! i had no experience in the field and had many things that they knew about that normally would have meant i couldn't get the job.. a main one was transportation. But still i was hired on. and not long after an employee offered for me to live wth him in his apt! God does provide.. in many ways and he will always help you no matter what. you just have to open your heart to him and be faithful to him!
