Keep Pressing On

"I think a hero is an ordinary individual who finds strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles."
Christopher Reeve
Actor, Producer, Director and Writer
1952 - 2004

"Well, we begin the second half this week. I pray that you find the strength to persevere. Press past the fatigue, and weariness with well-doing. Resist the lie that says you've come far enough. The Bible says that it's through faithfulness and patience that we obtain the promises of God. The finish line is closer today than it's ever been. Press on hero, a lot of people are counting on us!"

Light and Shadows

Light and Shadows

Megan See

Sometimes I feel as if I can't breathe or as if there is no one there to catch me. To catch me when I fall into the depths of darkness here on this earth. My heart feels as if it's being suffocated, as if I cannot hold on any longer. My heart beats faster when I'm falling. I can feel the darkness invading my soul. I cry out for someone to reach down and grab me, to save me. I fall farther into darker deeper depths. My eyes grow wide and weary. My heart try's to push back.

I can see the light fading as I fall. I feel as if no one can save me. Until I reach a point. This point begins to feel like there is no hope. Then all of a sudden I see a light in this pitch black darkness. I'm drawn to it. I reach out in hope of there being something to grab onto. I press on farther to get this light that is shining so bright in all this darkness. Then there comes this hand it's stretched out to me as if someone was specifically placed there to hold on to me. I grab on hoping that it is sturdy enough for me. It pulls me in and wraps me in a hug filled with love, joy, and peace. I look up into the eyes of this rescuer and suddenly I know. I know who this person is.

He's a friend from long ago whom I drifted from and fell away into the darkness from. He pulls me near Him. For He is the ONE. He is indescribably wonderful. So, soon enough I'm filled with this light again. I recover from my darkness and reach out in hope to save another and another. So, I continue with being a light to others so that I will save someone else just as He has saved me. For I was called to be a light to this world as were you.

Love,

Megan
