Keep Driving

I received the following in an email from a friend. I pray and trust it will inspire and encourage you to continue to keep "driving" your faith through every area of your life.

Be IN courage!

One day a young lady was driving along with her father. They came upon a storm. The young lady asked her father what should she do, he said "keep driving". Cars began to pull over to the side, the storm was getting worse. "What should I do?" the young lady asked, "keep driving", her father replied.

On up a few feet she noticed eighteen wheelers were pulling over also. She told her dad, "I must pull over, I can barely see ahead. It is terrible out here, everyone is pulling over." Her father told her not to give up, "just keep driving".

Now the storm was terrible but she never stopped driving and soon she could see a little clearer. After a couple of miles she was on dry land and the sun was out. Her father said "now pull over and get out". She said "but why now?" He said "get out and look back at all the people who gave up and are still in the storm. You never gave up and now your storm is over."

This was a testimony for anyone that is going through something. Just because everyone else, even the ones that appear to be the biggest and strongest give up, you don't have to, because if you keep going on, up ahead your storm will soon be over and the sun will shine upon your face again.

Word to the Wise

"Do not let your conscience get a callous". Be sensitive. "Feel" your life and live it in living color; accepting responsibility for your actions, being aware of your thoughts and hearing your own words, before they leave your mouth. Be present in the moment, focused on your destiny.

Be In courage!

Action Plan

"Don't worry about anything ~ instead, pray about everything.
Tell God your needs and don't forget to thank Him for His answers."
Philippians 4:6

Philippians 4:6-7 (The Message)
Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.

Be IN courage!
