Fight for it

Pressure comes. Problems come. Issues can envelop us and we have no idea how to handle, but this morning during my devotion time, God reminded me of something very simple. Fight for it. We have control of our thoughts. If negativity comes in, we have to turn those thoughts into something positive. If you spend more time complaining about your job then appreciating it, perhaps its time to think about a career move. If you aren’t happy in your relationship…right.

I would rather live a life that enjoys the sunshine and rain and embraces each moment. I remembered this morning that you truly have to turn everything over to God and let Him handle it. God is big enough to carry all of our concerns, but we have to let Him have it. We have the power to control our situations; we just need to take hold of it. The power of life and death is in the tongue. If you say that you are tired, or upset, or irritated…then you will be. You can speak life or death into your situation, so if you speak life, speak peace, say in the morning, I am going to have a great day today, then it will happen.

Life has been kicking my butt lately. I’ve had more foolishness come my way than I have ever experienced before, but just as the world seemed like it was caving in, God stepped in and reminded me to fight for it. Fight for my dream, fight for my happiness, fight for my sanity, fight for my peace, fight for my joy. I have to fight. I’m trying to be more conscious of what I say, how I allow the foolishness to affect me. I have my weak moments, but I always get reminders about my power. I have the power to speak life. To take control of my situation and focus on the positive. I have to fight for it. .I have to fight for it. And right now I am fighting to remember that more than ever.

Peace Y’all
B
