The power of transformation and life's stumbling blocks


Rating: Not yet rated






When He gives us instructions that we are not comfortable, that takes us out of our comfort zones, that crushes our egos and flesh; they are always for our good: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose (Romans 8:28).


 


It is common to find ourselves in situations where we are faced with stumbling blocks such as; spouses, children, supervisors, car, ignorance, doubt, being out of touch with reality, being un-teachable, blaming others, worry, self-pity, selfishness, excuses, giving in to others and not finding the truth for ourselves, procrastination, laziness, denial, rejection, fear, trials, tribulations, excuses and other enemy.


 


Stumbling blocks often make us feel as if we have no sense of direction; there is no real stability, there is lack of control, and no authentic sense of worth. There is no satisfying accomplishment, because something has gotten in our way.


 


One of the reasons we fail to understand or accept stumbling blocks as a necessary part of life is that we do not put complete trust in the Lord. When we do not wait on God and we go ahead and make our own plans, God has to make us stumble over our own mistakes. But He does not leave us there. He often gives us many chances to correct them and move ahead.


 


When you recognize stumbling blocks in your life, do not push them to the side. Acknowledge that they are there and know that some need to stay. This awareness will allow you to face them as they are, let go of those that need to be let go and wait on God’s timing with those seemingly difficult ones that you can not handle.


 


Have you ever been late in going somewhere and you run into a car wreck and you utter a sigh of relief because you know that had you been earlier you could have been in that accident? Many times we do not immediately understand life’s stumbling blocks until later when we look back at events.


 


God often uses the strangest or simplest thing to protect us and to get his will accomplished. For example, sometimes we may have an appointment to get to and we go to our car and it has a flat tire or we can not find our key. 


 


We get upset, but that could be God’s way of preventing us from getting in an automobile accident that day. I have been in a similar situation where for some unforseen reason I do not leave home at the time I had planned to and when I get on the freeway I find that there has been a accident. 


 


Remember that stumbling blocks will always be there, but you do not need to worry about them because they are there for a purpose. When you understand how to recognize and deal with the more common stumbling blocks mentioned above, then you can begin to dream big, move from a place of stagnation and mediocrity to anticipate much growth, success and to expect the unexpected. 


 


You are a powerful individual, you are a conqueror, an over-comer, and you have great potentials
