The stacks might be against you, such that your friends don’t seem to be supportive enough! But
that shouldn’t condemn you.
You might have heard that when you are going
through hell, then keep going. That is the spirit. What you should know is that giving up now would
be you making sure that never succeed. In times of problems, that is when true champions are seen.
They face their problems head on.
Turn your life to
your savoir
When in difficulty, it is not a bad idea to turn
your life to your only creator – God. He’s got so much love that when you turn your life to him, he
takes care of your problems. In his word the Holy Book in Mathew 16:28, he says that all those that are weary and burdened should come to him and He
will give them rest.
The Holy Book contains words of encouragement during a hard time. Like in the book of Jeremiah
29:11 – 12. He says and I quote “For I know the plans I
have for you, says the LORD, plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you.” Why would you not turn your life
to him then? Some
of these words of encouragement, you will find when surfing the net.
The power of friends
The people we choose to associate ourselves with
get to influence our decisions which in turn condemn us to death. I will make an example of a group
frogs that were walking together around a pit and two of them fell in it. The others quickly
gathered around and saw how deep the pit was, so they told the two to forget about coming out. They
were as good as dead. But the frogs kept on jumping using their every strength. But the ones
outside were so discouraging that one eventually gave up and died.
But the other one persisted until he jumped out.
When he was out, the frogs asked him if he had heard them and he replied that he was deaf and
couldn’t hear them and he thought that they were encouraging him. There you have it, failure and
success is in your tongue. One word out can kill someone. Make sure that what you say can only make
the other better. This and more, go to butlerwebs.com.
Words of encouragement during a difficult time are what the next person really needs. With
encouraging words, you can only make the other better. You do not have to give him a lecture on
what really landed him on this problem. All you can do is to let him know that you are there for
him. That in itself is a million words to lift him.
