“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
John 16:33 NIV +
Written by Jung
Have you ever overcome anything in life?
I have overcome the fear of failure. At one point in my life, the idea of failing again was crippling me.
I didn’t want to try again, so I kept hiding away. I accepted the fact that there might not be any future for me.
I wasn’t able to overcome it by rising to the occasion like an upbeat and can-do movie. I couldn’t just grit my teeth and try until a breakthrough occurred.
But you know what got me out? Of course, it was Jesus. Let me share how it happened.
Instead of facing my challenges head-on, I served Jesus. I did anything and everything I could because He was the only certainty in my life. The only thing I had faith in was that Jesus was right and would always be right.
In serving Him, I saw myself being used for His good work. I saw myself being used to bring others closer to Jesus.
Then, I started to believe that if I could be part of this amazing work that Jesus is doing, I would surely find a meaningful way to be useful in this world.
We all have a place in this world that God has prepared for us. Find it in Him.
