"When life gives you dilemmas, make dilemmanade."
When I saw it I cracked up. The twist on "when life gives you lemons..." struck me so funny and I've not forgotten it.
So recently this quote returned to my mind, but in a not so funny kind of way. In more of an annoyed, tired of excuses kind of way.
People seem to be content with making excuses for not serving God....their troubled past, their trust issues, their issues with hypocritical church-goers....issues, issues, ISSUES! We all have them.
Are you still making excuses for something someone else has done or done to you?
How much does it matter what kind of life you've had - He GAVE His life away FOR YOU, so start living!
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:10

Please don't hear me saying - get over it and move on....I know life is tough and can be very harsh! People can be very hurtful, after all there was only one perfect man on this Earth. But He was all we needed and He still is.
How much does it matter what kind of people go to your church - He turned over tables when He found the money changers in His temple.
Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’”
Matthew 21:12-13
Do you really want people who have hurt you in the past continue to hurt you in the future? If we live our lives making excuses for ourselves because of what someone else did to us are we really living OUR lives? At what point do you turn from your past and choose a different path for your life.
We only have one life to live, one life to give.
Turn to Jesus!
He wants to comfort, be your strength, be your guiding light, be your all.
Please don't hear me saying - get over it and move on....I know life is tough and can be very harsh! People can be very hurtful, after all there was only one perfect man on this Earth. But He was all we needed and He still is.
Stop making excuses and live life to the fullest.
Thankful, Sheryl
