Encouragement from a “It Could Always Be Worse” GORUCK patch
THIS is a great patch. What a good reminder – It COULD Always Be Worse.
You woke up this morning by nothing of your own doing. Breath was put in your lungs. You have vitality in your bones to do something like F3. Physical health.
When it feels really dark – tell yourself “It Could Always Be Worse” and put one foot in front of the other.
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has no enough trouble of its own.” — Matthew 6:34
TODAY is a good day to have a good day. Focus in on today. Also let’s talk about this word “trouble.” I want to challenge us to reframe this word.
“Trouble” — trouble for the kingdom of Hell. There is a very real enemy that seeks to kill, steal, and destroy. So when we do things like F3 and gather together to strengthen each other in prayer and as High Impact Men – this causes trouble for the enemy. Let’s cause some trouble for the enemy this week by what we say, what we do, and how we live our lives as HIM.
BE ENCOURAGED! (1) It Could Always Be Worse and (2) It’s A Good Day To Have A Good Day
