Second chances given by God

​We all get second chances in life and it’s such a blessing to be given another opportunity to live.  Each day we awaken, God is giving us another day on our journey.  God also gives us choices to do whatever we want to do as well. It’s very important that we value the second chance because it’s short and we should make the best out of what we were given by God. 
 
We all have a story of what we’ve been through, what we’re going through and obstacles that we have to face or consequences that we’re dealing with from our actions but it all balls down to how are we going to handle situations? How are we interacting with others? How are we conducting ourselves? And how are we living out the mission set by God.
 
God has a plan and He loves us very much but we have to do our part too.  He wants the best for us and He’s the only one who can help us grow and be better people.  Life is full of stuff and it’s not going to be good all the time.  We should listen more and really see what He’s trying to do in our lives.
 
I say it all the time that it’s a blessing to have trials and tribulations because this is how we grow when we learn from experiences or have to deal with things.  Some situations are hard to handle but this is why we need God to help us through things and keep standing with our heads held high.  We don’t control others so let’s not allow others to control us.  Let’s love one another, give our burdens to God and keep it moving.  This will bring us peace and allow God to work in our lives. 
 
Remember, we were given a second chance and it’s not about what we’ve been through but more about how are we handling situations to still allow our light to shine and be a vessel for God.
 
Amen and Thank You Lord.
