THE LITTLE ENGINE THAT COULD ~

A story of how the little engine who needed to pull a load up a big mountain.  As it got harder, the little engine kept saying, "I - think - can, I - think -I - can."  It shows bravery and then the top saying, "I thought I would, I thought I could". 


BRAVE ~ 
There are times of life when we must speak life to ourselves.  Life can present some hard times and we  might feel it's to hard.  Take on the attitude of the little train and tell yourself I - think - I - can and move it to I thought I could.  Such a great example of pressing forward and then it mountains in life is conquered.  Leaving you with peace and a big sense of relief. 

Now I can relate this to the Bible.  

Isaiah 40:28-31  New International Version (NIV)
28 Do you not know?
    Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
    the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
    and his understanding no one can fathom.
29 He gives strength to the weary
    and increases the power of the weak.
30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
    and young men stumble and fall;
31 but those who hope in the Lord
    will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
    they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint.

​KEEP HOPE ALIVE ~
Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength

I - think - I - Can = Turns into I know I can. I will trust the Lord with straight paths of life, mountains that are big and small things of life.  I will lean not to my own understanding but to God.  I must keep hope alive and know that the promises of God are true.  How long do I need to hold on for in life?  As long as it takes my friend. I've seen hard times, but I seen miracles in my life.  I know that I have days of wonder too, but I must keep trusting the Lord.  

TELL YOURSELF ~
I am important and stronger than I might think

Remember verse 31 above:
31 but those who hope in the Lord
    will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
    they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint.

My prayers continue for you (readers of my blog), your family and friends.  Be encouraged today and see yourself confident as you move forward trusting God. One day can be a mixture of feelings, emotions and life events.  One day you will look back and see how God carried your through days that were just a little hard.  It's important not to become weary and speak encouraging words to yourself.
