I tend to get frustrated easily. When things don't come easy for me, I naturally draw back and stop doing it.
To avoid getting down on myself, I just stop doing that and I continue looking for something else that comes easier. Let me tell you THIS IS NOT A GOOD THING. It is not a good thing to give up on something you love, although it doesn't come easy. At the point it becomes a challenge, this it when it is meant to be the LEARNING EXPERIENCE!!!! Without a challenge there is no change, and without change there is no learning or growing involved.
So how do I get through tough, frustrating times? I learn to rely on the BIG picture for my life. I rely on my FAITH and KNOWLEDGE of a greater purpose and plan for me. God knows and sees the BIG picture, and so I know through faith in HIM guiding me, I can be led in the direction I need to go, even if at times it seems to difficult and challenging. I MUST endure challenges to become stronger.
When things begin to seem more difficult than ever, it is then that I recognize that I am focusing less on God's will and more on MY OWN will and things of this world. As much as I hate to admit, this happens often. I must take a step back, get on my knees, and humble myself (once again) before God.
I can do great things, but not on my own. It is more like GOD can do great things THROUGH me.
So here I am taking a step back (once again).
Thank YOU for being by my side!
