Living in South Florida you learn that the weather can be unpredictable. The morning is beautiful, bright, and sunny. The early afternoon breaths down on us with high heat and humidity that makes it look like you ran a marathon in 30 seconds as the sweat runs down your forehead. Somewhere around 2 pm thunderstorms role by with torrential winds making everyone scurry to their corner and late for their next appointment. And then… the day becomes clear and crisp with endless amounts of humidity and air that feels smog-free.
It sounds like life! We start of strong and then the trials and tribulations start. Work, traffic, family life, memories of he past, and so much more are like the rainstorm. Once the problem resolves itself, we are back to a nice sunny day.
What is the lesson or moral of the story? It is simply that after every rainstorm, there will be another sunny day. Our problems will come and go. We must find a way to remember that while we are in the rainstorm a brighter day is to come. We must focus on the beautiful end to the situation.
Steven Covey talked about “Begin with the end in mind”. The bible talks about our salvation and the glorious Heaven we win by following God. Goal setting requires us to know what the goal is so we can make it happen. The result can be great if it is part of your daily focus.
Today I encourage you to find that great ending. It is my hope that in some small way I have made your life better. Good Luck!
