High Tide, Low Tide, Storms . . . Another Day at the Beach
So often we forget that progress in any endeavor is not necessarily a steady succession of actions being taken in a rhythmic pace like that of waves lapping on a beach.
If you've ever spent a couple of days at the beach, even the seashore appears to experience daily set backs when the tide goes out or when a serious storm leaves behind litter . . . and at times,even treasure if you look closely.
Be encouraged today as you consider it is normal to experience a rise and fall of your personal focus and commitment to daily disciplines. Focus on what you are doing well, what you are willing to accept responsibility for, where you are growing, who you are allowing to hold you accountable, what you are changing, what you are confessing, where you are healing.
Most importantly, keep praising God for what He has done and what He's promised to do in and through you by the power of His Holy Spirit of His Son Jesus Christ. Whether today this finds you in a low tide or riding the rough seas, take the next step towards your goals, walking with God by faith.
You can trust He will continue to help you discern what is trash and what might be 'treasure' left behind in today's low tide or yesterday's storm, just as much as you can trust Him to calm you and help you stay on course in spite of rough seas.
Simply picture the beach at its best. And . . . picture your life at its best. Let your vision propel you to move towards what God is showing you today.
