Bounce Back

You are exactly what God made you to be, and that is a good thing! You are in the middle of God’s hand, and in the midst of God’s love, and that is enough to give Him praise! You have been through a lot, and God has covered you with His grace and mercy so be not afraid of what this world has put in front of you because God has got your back! There is something about the name of Jesus! Just the mention of His name can change the atmosphere! Praise God on this day and watch what was a bad situation turn around!

Good day to you all! Always seek peace, and speak love. You will have an impact where ever you go! The angels will be walking with you where ever you go, and God will protect you.

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2:8-9

I can remember when bungee jumping was popular. For thrill seekers it was the ultimate adrenaline rush. To jump from a high platform feeling like you are free falling, and just when you think that you are about to hit the ground, you are pulled back up by the elastic rope that has been tied around your ankle. Some people would not ever think about bungee jumping because they do not trust the rope that is secured around the ankles. What if it breaks? What is I hit the ground before the rope pulls me back up. Well the thrill seekers would tell the people that bungee jumping is not for the faint of heart. You have got to trust the equipment in order to get the full effect. You have got to know that when you are on your way down, you will come right back up.

Dear Reader, I want you to know that having faith is like bungee jumping. That is good to know because it can seem like we are just free falling through life. We watch our hopes and dreams pass us by. We see other people getting ahead. We watch bank accounts that were once doing well, dwindle down to nothing, and as we watch these things happen we fear that we are going to hit the ground. Let me tell you that following Jesus is not for the faint of heart. Dear Reader when you feel that you are free falling, God has secured you with His love. You may have been falling for a while, but the laws of physics tell us that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. So the good news today Dear Reader is that if you have been on your way down for a while, the world better look out because when you bounce back there is nothing that can stop you. You may have seen other people getting ahead, and those dreams may seem like they are long gone, but oh Dear Reader, you just haven’t bounced back yet. If they thought that they saw the last of you, wait till you bounce back. Those people that you thought has passed you up will be trying to catch up to you when you bounce back. You have got to know that when you are on your way down that God has not left you and that you are not going to hit the ground. You are going to bounce right back up! There are some of us who don’t want to fall from too high up. Dear Reader put your trust in God and know that He has all power in His hands. He loves you are will never let you hit the ground without a soft place to land. You will bounce back!

You are beautiful, loved, and blessed
