Topic: The
Ultimate Victory
I
know two people who are fulfilling what one could call "The
Ultimate Victory." These two people were disabled in separate
accidents when they were in the prime of their youth. One of these
persons is paralyzed from the waist down, while the other is paralyzed
from the neck down with only limited use of her hands. These people are
achieving the "The Ultimate Victory" and doing the ultimate
good our God calls each of us to do. These people have survived the fall
of darkness in their lives and live productively. Because of their
accidents, they have worked for the betterment of others and lobby for
the interests of those less fortunate. "The ultimate good" is
the action we take when darkness falls and hope is threatened with
extinction in our life. When we take an action that adds to the hope and
Light of God burning within others, we have not just overcome the
darkness ourselves, we have defeated the darkness and achieved the
ultimate victory in the lives of others. This is not to say persons who
have been afflicted by the darkness do not have bad moments, because
they do. Sometimes there are many bad moments. However, the sum total of
these bad moments in the lives of persons who are afflicted need not
drive out the Light of God burning within them. We keep the Light of God
burning within our heart, mind, and soul by continual invitation of the
Light to stay within us. For the more we hope, the more the Light has a
chance to burn and fuel us onward.
In practical terms, outside circumstances may come against us, but we
can rule over the circumstances when we have the Light and love inside
of us.
If these words have been a blessing to you please forward
them to a friend.
