I needed to read this today. "The message" is delivered to my work email address on a daily basis but often lost in the masses of other red email requiring 'urgent' attention.
Today's message:
1 Corinthians 10:13 (The Message)
No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down; he'll never let you be pushed past your limit; he'll always be there to help you come through it.
I'm going to try and remember that message this whole week. A lot of major life changes are happening in my life once again that could really turn things upside down for me. They're welcome changes, to some extent, because I'm not about staying stagnant in my personal development. I was beginning to feel like 'my work is done' in my current stage of life (not going to get into explaining why).. and then this new proposal came my way today that I found pretty interesting. I could have been very upset, but I'm not... for the most part it just seems to make a lot of sense. I made a pretty quick decision today to accept the proposal, but it's really going to change a lot of things for me and the current / future type of relationships I have with people. I feel like I'm going to be pushed a bit "past my limit".... but I also really feel like this is another test / opportunity that's really going to help me grow in ways that I can't quite foresee at the moment, or the type of impact this decision is going to have on my life, but something intuitively feels really right about it.
More to come.
