Can We?

      There is so much going on in the world today, some good, yes, but it seems the bad is taking a major role in everything! Is it? Or does it just get seen and heard of so much more? That's why I am not a fan of watching the news: seems like it just reports the bad stuff and it drags me down. And, in reality, I don't need help being drug down! I am pretty good at doing that to myself. However, I also have the desire to fight that downward pull and push forward and upward. It just seems to me that there is a feeling in the very atmosphere that is trying to drag everything down with it. I see it all around me and feel it from others as well. Do you sometimes feel it or is it just me being slightly psycho?!!? Hmm!

     So what can I do about it? What can we do about it? It is a tough uphill battle, BUT we can come out on top eventually! How? The Lord has given us a step by step plan. Do we know the steps? If so, do we follow them? Stop and give it some thought and for the next few weeks or so I will write about some of the steps He has given us to overcome the downward pull of this world and continue to move up the path that leads to Him and eternity. And since I really need to review them and strenthen them in my life, then writing them in my blogs gives me an even deeper self-evalutation. So give it some thought and we will start with one next week.
