A Roller-Coaster Life



Sometimes our lives can feel like we are riding one of those huge scary roller-coasters and we can’t wait to get off it!  There will be exciting times when we feel on top of the world, when everything is going right and life feels good.  And then there are times when, like the dipping of a roller-coaster, we get that sick feeling in our stomach, when we feel nothing is going right and life really ‘sucks’.  In times like those, my coping mechanism has always been, when life is good, enjoy it while it lasts and when it’s not, hold on tight, encourage yourself by meditating on God’s promises and let your mantra be ‘This too shall pass’!   The thing about a roller-coaster is that you can’t always see what lies ahead, which is a lot like life.  As someone who is not a great fan of the sensation of being on a roller-coaster, it is very difficult to enjoy the ride, but in life we must – We need to stop our inner-screaming and just hold on tight to God and even if there are times when we must close our eyes, survive it we will! So just enjoy the ride...
