BOUNCING BACK

"Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;"

2 Corinthians 4:9



Ever noticed how perils and persecution complicate things?


Amazing, huh?


The interruption of things we've known and grown accustomed to doing--or having--or being--can obviously create stress.


Sure, stress-survivors have to contend with this, too. But we're determined to not be disillusioned or destroyed by the likes of stress. We are resolved to "bouncing back" . . . again and again.


Although the concept of Bouncing Back is not a new one, it's nonetheless challenging. . .and, in many instances, quite stressful. Truth is, it requires a great deal of faith, as well as fearlessness.


As most survivors have discovered, We never know what we can do, until we try.


When cast down and bounced all around, we don't have to quiver and quit. Stress-survivors choose to persevere by embracing our God-given ability for BOUNCING BACK.


Peace I leave with you . . .
