Don't Break, Bounce Back (2)
"Though good people may be bothered by trouble...they are never defeated." Proverbs 24:16 NCV
Here are two more keys to bouncing back (1) Instead of complaining about what you can't change, change what you can. When you can't change your situation, you can change your attitude toward it. How do you do that? By reprogramming your mind with God's Word. The Bible says, "For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith. And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe {trust in God}" (1 John 5:4-5 NLT). (2) Instead of grumbling about your pain, grow through it. At the peak of her career, when photographer Linda Joy Montgomery learned she was going blind, an inner voice said, "This isn't the end; it's the beginning." She began writing poetry, discovered her calling as a motivational speaker, and created the True Vision Institute, teaching kids to tap into their inner resources. Finding purpose in your pain isn't a new idea. Survivors of life-threatening illnesses, natural disasters, and the Holocaust and parents of chronically ill children, continually demonstrate how overcomers find the proverbial silver lining by reinventing themselves. Meeting challenges helps you develop a can-do attitude that says, "Been there, done that, and I will survive." Basketball star Michael Jordan said, I've missed over 9000 shots in my career....lost over 300 games...26 times I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." And you can too.
