| Pick Yourself Up |
There is a saying, “Getting out of Dodge.” The meaning is
something like there’s trouble in River
City
The bottom line is: “It’s time for me to hit the road and
get out of here or else I’ll regret it.” Usually it isn’t something a person
wants to do but because of situational changes it becomes necessary.
The original case in point was leaving the Garden Of Eden!
Of all the emotions the duo experienced the feeling of emptiness was one of the
worst. The suffering brought on by the feeling of emptiness is real and
devastating.
The source of the malady can be many things but in all cases
it is the reflection of loss. It can be
the death of a love one, a lost job, a failed marriage, on and on.
Its a time when one discovers the depths of depression and
fights for survival.
Like in the case of Adam and Eve some things are lost and
not recoverable and we have to start all over again, like those who have lost
everything due to storm, fire or flood.
The scripture Challenges us found in Colossians 3:17 : Whatever you do in
word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him
to God the Father.
This is a good place to start as we begin our recovery do it
in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Frank Sinatra once sang a song that gives some good advice
to those who have hit on hard times.
"Pick Yourself Up"
Pick yourself up...
Take a deep breath...
Dust yourself off
And start all over again.
Nothing's impossible, I have found
For when my chin is on the ground.
I pick myself up,
Dust myself off
And start all over again.
Don't lose your confidence
If you slip
Be grateful for a pleasant trip
And pick yourself up,
Dust yourself off
And start all over again.
Until the battle of the day is won.
You may be sick and tired,
But you'll be a man, my son.
Will you remember the famous men
Who had to fall to rise again
They picked themselves up
Dust themselves off
And start'd all over again.
Till the battle of the day is won.
You may be sick and tired,
But you'll be a man, my son.
Will you remember the famous men
Who had to fall to rise again?
So take a deep breath...
Pick yourself up...
Dust yourself off
And start all over again.
