Life is Messy

By February 5, 2015Keeping it Real

Life is messy, right? We’ve all experienced it a time or two. Or three. Or four.

While yours may look different than mine we may rest in the assurance that we are not alone. Sometimes we’re the mess makers, other times it’s handed to us at no fault of our own.

Humans and messiness go hand in hand.

But here’s the thing, your mess is a message that can help someone else conquer theirs. It’s simple (not easy) really. Train your mind to shift your focus from yourself to others, and miraculously your mess may dissipate and often disappears.

It’s called “grace.” It’s a God thing.

Here’s the equation: Humility + God + Others – Yourself = Less mess.

Here’s your proof: “He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us” (2 Corinthians 1:4).
