Life can be such a jumbled mess of events. One minute your soul is filled to the brim with joy and the next you’re shoved to the ground and struggle to get back up. Every day brings something new and it's easy to feel adrift amongst a raging sea. Drowning may seem imminent and the dark, broiling clouds may have no apparent break in them, but they do. Though your comfortable boat may be capsized by the tidal wave life can bring, your circumstances could be casting you into the waters you’re meant to tread.
Comfort zones are tempting but numbing. We weren’t meant to coast through our days trying to avoid turmoil; some of our greatest blessings are a direct result of trials. When we close our minds and hearts to the experiences meant to shape us, we miss the opportunity to progress. Chaos may kick up dust that's difficult to see through, but soon it will all settle into a clear picture.Don't let fear or pain keep you from every great thing in front of you. Step out of the boat when you're most scared, face the waves that seem too overwhelming. Don't get yourself stuck in a place you weren't meant to stay in because the opportunity seemed too big for you or the fall out could've been awful. Life wasn't meant to always be peachy for any of us, but every situation we face is bringing us one step closer to who we're supposed to be. Remind yourself that you're capable of overcoming any obstacle, have faith that you are strong enough to rise above. The trials will come no matter what, but decide to face them with a brave heart.
