Try hard and be brave
Thus the Lord said to Joshua, be strong and courageous ... No one is going to face the challenges that are in your path for you.
About us?
There are millions of people wasting their lives simply by unknowingly or voluntarily ignoring such an important question ... Whether I am right or wrong, it is worth giving someone to think with that question. In essence, who are we?
I came to a conclusion. We are beings with a particular purpose, personal and well defined where every dream, goal, longing and passion makes total sense; but we always require courage, courage and genuine love to fulfill it, confronting ourselves first ... In the power of God and through Jesus Christ.

or this, it is wise to think that the most important thing I can do today; it is exactly what I want to remember in the eternal tomorrow. Because life may be too short to invest in something else
Try hard and be brave
No matter our employment, social position, or achievements, all of us in our lives have a "ticking" countdown within; for all of us the years, minutes and days are numbered.
And if in the same way life will always be hard and difficult, at least you have to make it worthwhile! Truly, Christians being alive and "freed from sin"; We have immense potential within the purpose of our existence as we walk with God. God can do many things with us, but only we decide ... Whether or not we want to face the destiny that God puts before us.
It is the only way in which our life takes on a full and genuine congruent meaning; with the reason why we were created and specifically designed. There are several options when taking risks; to win, to die fighting or to give up and to live a meaningless life enslaved to the past or to sin ... Satan will use absolutely everything he has at hand to brutally hit our mind and conscience. For us to lose the identity that God has given us ... Do not leave, fight! strive and be brave.
The truth is that in Christ there is a destiny and it is eternal, but you must not forget; evil exists, and if you give it an opportunity no matter how small it is to the devil, he will not hesitate to take advantage of it. Do not hesitate to affect and harm physically, emotionally and spiritually as much as you allow it to do so. We are not in heaven yet ... do not let your guard down, be strong and be brave.

In this life, you have to be sure ... that if you want success in fulfilling your purpose or mission you will have to fight very hard and suffer; it will always be more difficult than wasting time and staying idle ... if you walk from the hand of Jesus possibly every day you will win for sure you will achieve it, strive and be brave.
You will live beautiful moments and he will give you incredible victories and great achievements; but you can be sure that you will suffer in the process. And maybe it's more than you calculate or imagine, maybe desists because of the pain of the wounds ... Maybe you do it just before receiving the reward of your process. Or maybe you cling to God and succeed in overcoming it, by reaching with faith the crown of life. Consuming the purpose of your life, only you decide.
Will we make mistakes? Yes. Will we live without a number of disappointments? Probably! ... Maybe we will still have a lot of frustrations, and possibly for some time we will be tormented by our disappointments and mistakes. But it is at that moment that we must remember the reason for our pains ... Look at the sky and remember that the one who called us is the eternal one.
The creator of the stars; and contemplate and remember how he "did" with wisdom, majesty and beauty! He named each one of them. Remember the essentials of our existence: God follows us as firm and bright as every star; And even if a storm makes it difficult for us to see them, they are there, and they will be all the way to your destination. If you decide to accept it and keep walking, we are not the only ones who have walked, we are walking or we will walk on this hard road, strive and be brave.

Day by day I see myself in the obligation to admit. Beyond the wisdom to understand who we are in the will of God and what we should do; I need in an indispensable way the courage to make sound decisions with a view to building a destiny according to their purposes tomorrow.
And that is the part that God can not do, and that sometimes does not work out ... because it depends on us.
But I am sure that the God of glory, the one who honors the faith of every man, he will make it work ... Romans 8 and Hebrews 11.
In short, it takes a lot of courage to tell a truth whose consequences will harm you, but you will still need more courage to congruently after saying it, live in integrity and keep it as an irrefutable reality in your life to the end despite what you can to mean.
