an overcomer

I love when plans fall into place...  Well not necessarily fall but are deliberately orchestrated by God. His plans always have a design, a purpose to fulfill and lately since I have been placing all my trust in him he has delivered in ways unimaginable. Often at times we want to choose the path our life is headed. We move forward without any thoughts of whether or not we are headed in the right direction. It's in those moments we fail to recognize that we are not in control. Life catches us and brings us down to earth occasionally. A loss, a failure, a heartbreak... Those are the deeper and more significant challenges we face as children of God. Because of sin there is a darker and often depressing force at work. The enemy knows our weaknesses and prey's on us during those time's. If you allow yourself to become a victim and turn your heart away from the Lord you may feel alone but don't give up. You are an overcomer and will pull through it! Do not allow yourself to sink in the quicksand. Take a deep breath and swim to safety, in the arms of your savior "God the Father. Just when you think He is finished you recognize that He's only just begun. Remember:

Philippians 1:6

New International Version (NIV)
being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

Praise God!
