As a society, we love replaying events and situations over and over to try to understand something. The fact is, something bad things happen to good people. There is no rhyme or reason. Even the Son of God suffered greatly on this earth. If the Son of God suffers here on this side of heaven, what makes you different that you should not?
You can drink anything your herat desires but ultimately, you will crave water and will always return to it. The same with God. You can move away from God and live in this earthly world but ultimately, you will return to the only one that can quench the thirst of our soul. PJSLB
Growing up as a child, my parents would make weekly trips to the grocery store. At the check out line, there would always be candy and chocolates all lined up just waiting for me to get them. I would really want one but i was too afraid to ask.
One day, my mom noticed me staring particularly hard at the candy. I wanted her to ask if i wanted it, but she didnt. In the end, i whispered “mom, can you buy me some candy?” Without hesitation, she answered yes and soon after i finally had my treat!
I learned a valuable lesson that day. You will not get what you do no ask for. So if you want something, “SHOOT YOUR SHOT” because not acting upon something is a guaranteed way of not receiving anything. PJSLB
