Checking in on this cool saturday morning. <IMg src="http://mrssurvival.com/forums/uploads/1242854147/tn_gallery_5078_43_334.gif"><P> <center> <font face="comic sans ms"><font size=3><font color=000000>Season's Of A Lifetime<P> People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.<br> When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are.<br> They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.<br> Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it is now time to move on.<br> When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They may bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. It is real! But, only for a season. <br> LIFETIME relationships teach you lessons; those things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person anyway; and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of you life. <p> LINK

Jesus Christ is the only genuine source of hope, because He alone knows what is best and has the sovereignty and power to secure its fulfillment. All other hopes are grounded on the shifting sands of circumstances beyond our control. Each of us has expectations for the future, but these often pertain only to this earthly life. Christ promises us the “living hope” of an imperishable inheritance in heaven. Everyday desires will all fade away, but our home in heaven is eternal. This is our ultimate security and anchor when the storms of life are severe. <Img src="http://mrssurvival.com/forums/uploads/1242854147/gallery_5078_43_44358.jpg"> But how do we endure times of trial right now? Heaven can seem so far away when pain is present and there’s no relief in sight. Hope anticipates a change of circumstances for the better. And what about times when our situation is not improving—then, what is God doing that is “better”? Peter tells us He is refining our faith, which will result in praise and glory when Jesus returns. This is more valuable to us than gold or even relief from our distress. What a paradox! The difficulties which cause us to lose hope are the tools the Lord uses to increase our faith and hope in Him.
