Prize

|
Today wasn’t the greatest day. I began to lose focus on my purpose here. I began to look at the size of the giant and not the size of the prize. Needless to say, my giant looked impossible to defeat, but then I got a letter, which seemed to be perfect timing. “Did you know that you minister to me every single day? I think about you every day, man. The darkness that we both shared is consumed and held at bay with the light that you shone into my life, and every time I think about something that you said, or just your example, I think about it. I change my mind. I DON’T DO IT!”
Thank you friend! for showing me the prize. You! You and several others! Thousands, maybe millions, I only hope and pray! I love you! YOU are worth it!
My giant seems a little smaller today and my prize, one person greater!
Breaking the Hush,
Shawn

Ps. 27:13-14 (NKJV) I would have lost heart unless I had believed I would see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD, be of good courage and He shall strengthen your heart. Wait, I say, on the LORD.
Did you know that when the word "lord" is printed in ALL-CAPs in the text, the Hebrew word there is YHWH - referring to our COVENANT MAKER & KEEPER?
Reminds me of another verse in Isaiah 54:10 (NIV)
Though the mountains be shaken
and the hills be removed,
yet my UNFAILING love for you will not be shaken
nor my covenant of peace be removed,?
says the LORD, who has compassion on you.
One more -- Zephaniah 3:17. The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you. He will quiet you with his love. He will rejoice over you with singing!
