Facing the Giants

Is there a giant of any kind sneaking around in your life...trying to pull you away from the higher good that God has for you? Giants make life hard; God makes life good. We get to choose which we will allow to control our lives. You may be facing a giant of loneliness as this Thanksgiving Holiday approaches, or a giant of rejection or fear. Recognize that these giants love to bother all of us. They dance in and out of our lives with a gleeful step, certain that they can move us away from God's best for us. But we must keep our eyes on Jesus..focused on Him and on His deeper purposes. If you are struggling with Thanksgiving this year, try to make your own "I'm grateful for...."list. At the beginning of each day, read the list to God. Just this simple exercise will take you from worry to worship. Look up. Your Redeemer has plans, and those plans include you! God bless you!
