Christian Motivation
Make
a Choice: Victim or Conqueror
If
you’re dealing with disappointment, if someone has let you down in
a big way, you have a choice to make. Will you choose to be a victim,
or will you choose to be a conqueror?
You
can choose to be a victim. You can live in the hurt. You can let that
pain haunt you for years. You can allow your disappointment to make
you build walls so no one can get in to hurt you again. You can keep
blaming the person who hurt you for the way your life is now. You can
allow it to make you a slave to what has happened to you.
Or,
you can choose to be a conqueror, which is what God wants for his
people. You can extend mercy and forgiveness. You can choose to let
go of what has hurt you and to hold on to the hand of Jesus who has
never left your side.
There
is not a way to avoid being disappointed in this life. No matter how
much someone loves you, they can let you down. But while it’s easy
to get caught up and bogged down by those hurts and disappointments,
our eyes should be on Jesus. Life is hard, but we can totally depend
on Jesus. No matter who leaves us, no matter what happens, no matter
what’s been done to you, Jesus has promised that he will never
forsake us.
“…for
he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we
may boldly say, the Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man
shall do unto me.”
Hebrews
13:5b-6
