Struggles Make You Good!

IN YOUR STRUGGLE, LET OTHERS OBSERVE GOD'S WORK IN YOUR LIFE AND BEAR WITNESS! #JOEBINSPIRE

I was always told by my parents and grandparents that "A tree is known by the fruit it bears". It has taken me a lifetime to find out what that truly means. When you think of trees and fruit, apple trees are the most prevalent thought. The apple is used in many parables that expound on life's principles.

I was instructed that one bad apple can spoil the whole bunch. While, on the other hand, an apple a day could keep the doctor away. Thus, the same thing that could cause you grief, could also make you good.

You might ask, "How is that possible".

When we experience trials and tribulations in our lives, it is natural to see it as being attacked, pressed down, or placed at a disadvantage. Yet, to the contrary, when we think of the manner in which we view those obstacles, they become learning tools for future life moments. They can be used to teach others how to stand in the face of adversity.

This is easier to do when you believe in the higher power of God and His purpose for your life. Finding your passions help you to find your purpose. It is inevitable that your purpose will inspire others even if you are not completely sure about your path. Obstacles lead you into the area where others observe the way that you persevere, answer the difficult questions, and withstand the adverse actions against your character, and person. When others see you overcome, they are inspired by what they can do because of what you did. Ponder those things as you stand up to adversity, observe others strengths, and take the next steps.

EVEN IN MY STRUGGLES, I DON'T FORGET WHERE MY HELP COMES FROM! #JOEBINSPIRE

WHETHER YOU CALL IT DEMONS, SETBACKS, OBSTACLES, ETC. KNOW THAT IT IS TEMPORARY BUT NECESSARY! #JOEBINSIRE
