The big difference

It's nice to see how the sun rises in the morning, indicating that a new day has begun. A new day which gives us the opportunity to set ourselves new goals, new hopes and new challenges. A new day that brings us the challenge of facing new situations. A new day that gives us the opportunity of achieving new tasks. A new day that gives us the opportunity of a new beginning. If we stop to observe the wonders that a new dawn offers us, every day we could celebrate when waking up.


Although God has not offered us a life without difficulties, he has offered us that He will give us his help to face every difficulty that may arise.  Looking into the lives of those who have succeeded and those who have been immersed in a life of frustration for unreached dreams, we can see a great similarity and a big difference between the two groups.

The great similarity is that both groups are made up by people who faced problems and frustrations in life. The great difference is that the group of people who triumphed did not stopped to regret when facing the problem, difficulty or frustration; while the group of people that have lived a life of regrets stopped their life because of a moment of difficulty, and was not capable of seeing the new dawn as a new opportunity to start over. That group, at the difficult time in their life, dedicated each new dawn to look at their past and to regret for what happened, devoting each day to remember and relive that painful moment instead of leaving the past behind and continue the way taken from the hand of the Creator. The group of successful people knew how to leave their regrets in the past, and was able to identify the new dawn as a new opportunity life has given to rise back to dream and to succeed.

I don’t know in which of the two groups you are, but if you are reading this topic, remember that God has given you a life, and it is up to you to decide if you walk forward taken by his hand in that fight to reach your dreams, or if you decide to devote another day of your life to regret yourself for things from the past that are not under your control. I hope in God you choose the path of holding the hand of God and enjoy this new day, that you can have the opportunity to prove yourself and others that you can do all things through Christ which strengthened you.

I hope that today you decide to give yourself the opportunity to be happy and to set new dreams and goals in your life.

Remember: God has not promised a sky always blue, a life full of paths covered with flowers all the time; God has not promised a Sun without rain, joy without sorrow, peace without pain. But God himself has promised, strengths for the day, rest from the work, light in the road, grace in the tests, help from the above, inexhaustible compassion and eternal love.

Remember the things that the He has promised, and by giving him your whole heart, he will ensure to make the difference in your life.
