WHERE WILL IRE
"Where will I go from your Spirit? Or where will I flee from your presence? If he goes up to heaven, there you are; and if he make my bed in hell, behold, there you are. If I take the wings of the dawn, and dwell at the end of the sea, even there your hand will lead me, and your right hand will hold me. "
(Psalm 139: 7-10)

When you think you are out of the way, stop for a minute and begin to think what reason you would have to leave this path of efforts, struggles, sweat, tears and pain; think well, why leave this path? If after doing all the above you get peace, happiness, enthusiasm, you feel like those days in which in front of the presence of the Lord as David you have felt and want to dance, shout to smile at everything and everyone ... Start thinking why if you are really out of the way you will begin to feel impure, without satisfaction. If you know that you have failed it is time to move for a moment to that moment where you opened your eyes and realized that your Father has never lacked anything, while others with sad looks and worry often think at all times if that will be the last food of the day, yes, even if it hurts remember it, because that day you gave thanks to God for your beautiful family and for putting yourself in it.
Begin to remember the day you recognized that you needed God in your life, when you recognized that you were nobody, that your whole body was covered by the mark of those who are banished from the grace of God, your gaze reflected the misfortune that your heart felt to be outside the will of God ... Because knowing oneself outside the will of God brings a deep sadness to the heart. Because feeling and being aware that you are far away from their presence, makes you feel lonely and hopeless. Because to stop experiencing the presence of God in your life is almost mortal, because although you keep living and your heart beats, there is a spiritual death in your life. And the spirit needs to be quickened by God. Think about it before going back, before wanting to go back, before committing the mistakes of the past. Meditate well if you will be at peace with your conscience, because the world can only offer superficial and temporary things, but Christ always offers you bigger and more beautiful things than you imagine and expect.
Yes, I know there were many moments when Jeremiah wanted to flee because he felt the weight on his back and the pain nestled in his heart! How many at some time wanted to disappear and disappear from the map in the middle of a crossroads? But they knew that the source of life was in the One who had designed and marked them with specific and extraordinary purposes, therefore, they continued to persevere. Do not think about abandoning the one who has always remained faithful to you, to whom he has always been loyal to you. It is not an option or alternative to leave and lose everything for what you have fought and achieved. Because starting over again only delays you from the blessings that are almost conquered and that what you lack is little to obtain them. Because to leave everything is to lose, go to ruin and remain without profit and bankrupt.
You still have time to continue your journey, to continue the race. Still the competition is not over, some are ahead of you and are about to reach their goal, but if you get going, you have a good chance of not falling behind and winning a prize. The satisfaction you will feel when you reach the goal, there is no way to describe it. But it is your choice, only you decide what you will do. Nobody will force you to do something you do not want. Choose, but do not waste a lot of time thinking about it, because while you do not decide, time goes by and if you do not act, you will not achieve anything. Now it is in your hands, the results depend on you.
Go, do not be discouraged, you can achieve it! For something you have God and if you continue to count on him in your life, you will walk on heights.
