Don't call it a comeback

Not ashamed to rep the cross

What's good folks? I know, I know; it's been a little while since I've hit you with a new post, but I was going through a little spiritual drought but I'm back in full effect! One thing during this period of drought I learned is that it doesn't matter if you fall, because nobody's perfect; what matters is what you do once you've fallen. Do you stay down or do you get up and try again? It's easy to stay down because it requires no effort on our part. We can just sit back and chill. Getting back up, however, is a whole different story. It requires a great amount of persistence that we may not always have. What helps however, is a goal which gives us the will to get back up and continue on your journey. This applies not only in the christian walk but life in general. Without a goal, we'd roam around aimlessly with no reason. So for anybody feeling lost in their faith, keep your eyes on the prize and get back up.

Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win. Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things They then do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. Therefore I run in such a way, as not without aim; I box in such a way, as not beating the air; but I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified. - 1 Corinthians 9: 24-27

Shalom :)
