Win some, lose some

Our Christian journey is about walking through all kinds of experiences and situations. We have to walk through dark valleys, as well as spending time on significant mountain tops. It can often feel as if we are taking a few steps forward and then a couple backwards. To use another well known phrase, we may feel that "we win some and then lose some."

In truth, life will always be like this, we just need to keep proper perspective. When we walk with Jesus, he will keep us focused on the Eternal prize and so when we 'lose some' God will encourage us to carry on. Remember that when we surrender our 'lives' to Jesus, that includes the moments of defeat as well as victory. Thankfully God is redemptive and can turning our loses into gains.

Romans 8:28 - "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
