Flourishing Life

“The person who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.”  — Chinese Proverb

Got problems?  Join the club.  We all have areas of our lives that are difficult; relationships that aren’t working; jobs that can be wearisome; and emotional baggage we’ve carried for too long.  Sometimes a problem can be overwhelming, stifling the joy of living, weakening our ability to adjust to life and conquer our challenges.  However, problems do not have to define our lives.

Got a problem?  Start picking up some stones.  Do something.  Don’t be a victim.  With God’s help you can overcome any obstacle, move any mountain, traverse any valley.  But, you’ve got to start today!  Always keep this in mind: God is greater than all of our problems combined! Jesus makes this very obvious in Matthew 17:20: “For truly I tell you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.”
