I fell into some old, time-wasting, unproductive habits and lost a good portion of my time yesterday but today I will win again, PERIOD!
Yes my friends, truth be told we all have a proverbial “thorn or thorns” that can distract us and keep us in need of a little bit of grace and mercy from time-to-time and I’m definitely not foolish enough to pretend that I’m some type of exception. Yes indeed, to be perfectly honesty, sometimes I loss and sometimes I win.
The good news is that over the years I’ve gotten reallllly good at winning most of the time and I can put long distances of days, weeks, months and even years between some of my losses and I’m happy to say that although I may loss sometime, never am I defeated. Why? Well, it’s simply because being defeated means that you made a choice to stay in the “Loss”, and believe or not even NOT making a choice is actually making a choice.
Yes indeed my friends we will fall down in this “life” thing but we have to continue to make a conscious decision to get back up and run again to win. I’m convinced that our Creator delights in the comeback stories of our lives. So may my transparency today be a sign for you, You and each of YOU within eye-shot and ear-shot of my written words that to error is to be human and he or she who says otherwise or proclaims to be without flaws or hang-ups is two-kinds-of-crazy and three-kinds-of-foolish.
It’s ok that we may at times fall, drop, fail or flop. The thing that makes the difference is whether or not we stay in the setback. The great speaker Willie Jolley once said, “A Setback is just a setup for a comeback.” But, I think my friend Apostle Paul said it best when he wrote in my favorite book called “The Bible” his encouraging, reaffirming words hundreds of years ago to a group of people from Corinth to inspire and encourage them to boast all the more in their weaknesses for it is then that they can become stronger through the help of the one who created us all. (2 Corinthians 12: 7-10)
So, “GET BACK UP!” I say and get back into your race because someone is quietly counting on you to WIN much more than you loss! So, let’s keep pushing to Make it GREAT!!!
It’s a GREAT DAY to WIN again!!!
