NEW BEGINNINGS: Life After Loss

DAY 3 OF 4

THE CLIMB

During difficult times, a joyful spirit helps lift our gaze above what’s in front of us and seeks God’s wisdom to maneuver that season well. It can also encourage us to reset our mindset and push toward our God-assigned destiny while resisting the temptation of becoming frozen in the posture of our pain. God does not expect us to gloss over our agony and distress as though it does not exist. However, trusting Him and staying hopeful is expected. I am a testament that hiding scripture in our hearts... and focusing on the beauty of the love and laughter shared by our parents ignited healing for our souls and hope for our preordained future.

The mortal mind cannot make sense of grief or suffering. Yet, amidst life's challenges, finding joy in laughter and making positive declarations become essential to nurturing hope and faith. Remember... life is a journey filled with both highs and lows. In the inevitable "valley seasons" of life, finding solace and guidance in God's Word becomes paramount. This divine counsel serves as a beacon, igniting a fire within us, enabling us to persevere and continue through each trial. Think of it as a study guide for the upcoming tests and trials. Every valley holds invaluable lessons, shaping us for the mountaintop experiences.

If we allow the Word to fortify us during the low points in our lives, we'll become equipped to endure the uphill journey. Empowered by the strength found in God's promises, we can navigate our race with the joy that stems from our faith, as stated in Nehemiah 8:10, "The joy of the Lord is our strength."

"The Climb" represents a period of mind renewal and transformation. By embracing the challenges and seeking refuge in God's Word, we grow and emerge stronger, ready to conquer the peaks that await us.
