Bounce Back Person

Romans 8:28 and we KNOW that in ALL things God works for the good of all those who LOVE him, who have been called according to his purpose.

I want to be a bounce back person. When bad things happen around me or to me, I want to let them roll right off my back. I want to see how God is using it for GOOD in my life.

I want to be a palm tree. The palm tree was made to bend accordingly, but it won't break. When a storm comes it doesn't think... this is it. This is the one that will break me. Nope. He knows that God has designed him to bounce back up when the winds stop trying to blow him over. The "palm tree" has power behind it. The root system actually grows stronger during those rough times. When it bounces back, it comes back even stronger than before. I want to be a palm tree.

Psalm 92:12 " The righteous will flourish like a palm tree..."

The key is to stay in agreement with God. If you will stay in his favor and look to him through the hard times and the attacks from the devil.. then you will become a bouce back person.

I think I'm a pretty good bounce back person already, but I think I need to work harder on seeing the positive through the troubles. I need to grow stronger through the trials, instead of just getting through them. I want to GROW in God, knowing without a doubt that he will carry me through.
