Time Changes-- Spring Forward Or Fall Back!
In the game of billiards there are two things youwant to avoid. First, never scratch (put the whiteball in the pocket) you forfeit your turn.Second, if at all possible do not end up behindthe eight ball. If you've ever been there you knowit can be frustrating. The options you have arelimited and the black ball has forced you to playits game not yours. In the "art of war" generalsmain objective of their mission is to keep theinitiative, in other words always hold theadvantage. If they don't, missions are compromisedthe war is strung out and worse yet, lives are putin jeopardy. Every year in October we set our clocks back onehour and in the spring we set them up an hour. Forsome reason it feels better in the spring settingthe clocks forward even though we lose an hour ofsleep. Moving forward in life, having a positiveattitude and living our lives on Gods terms isexactly the life God has always wanted for us.Have you ever wondered how some people livelonger, go through adversity time after time andsurvive, or just seem to be happy all the time?It's probably because mentally they don't allowthemselves to get behind the eight ball or theynever lose the initiative of life no matter whathappens. We can wake up and allow Satan to burdenus down or we can, "CARPE DIEM". In other words,we have choices, we can fall back on our heels andbuy into Satan's lies or we can spring forward inGod's strength love and grace. Maybe that is whythe "Rocky" movies are so motivating. Nothing ismore inspiring than to see a person after beingknocked down get up on his feet, lean forward andpunch his way out of a tough situation. Have you ever felt behind the eight ball in thegame of life? Do you ever feel like you are losingthe battle with Satan? Paul writes in Philippians3:13, "Brethren, I count not myself to haveapprehended, but one thing I do, forgetting thosethings which are behind, and reaching forth untothose things which are before." Here are some suggestions that will help to notget behind the eight ball this week. Admit yourweakness to God. Focus on the important issues athand and so much on the urgent. Get up fifteenminutes earlier than normal so you don't rush outfeeling behind so soon in the day. Pray anddelegate some of your worries to God each morning. This week you may get knocked down off your feet.It may take you a while to get on sure footing andit may take strength of the heart to move forward.But keep the initiative, spring forward and livethe life God has always wanted for you. Don't buyinto the lies of Satan. Rocky didn't buy into thechants of the crowd. You may be surprised what Godhas in store for you. A little faith some forwardleaning and clear vision you can knock that eightball right into that pocket and win the game oflife.
