The Blizzard of 2010 is weeks behind us, yet there are still these mounds of snow scattered on the ground.
During my daily walk (the first one in over a week), as I was walking at a steady pace I began to encounter some of those mounds of snow. They are too large to step over therefore I had to walk around them which took me off my path and slowed me down. Being human, I became annoyed, until I received a revelation that this is how life is.
Suddenly, I began to smile.
When things are going well, we move at a steady pace, making progress. Yet, when faced with a challenge although it may appear that we are not making progress, everything is working for our good (Romans 8:28). God is working to build our character.
My lesson: never allow the challenges of life cause you to become discouraged, steal your joy or give up. Keep moving; keep trusting, keep smiling, for with each new day as the mounds of snow become smaller and smaller, your challenges will change.
There are only 20 days till spring!
