(Sun. March 6, 2011) Mary's Motivational Message


THERE IS A PURPOSE IN YOUR STRUGGLE
 
Today's show was based on a email request submitted from a local college student, whose desire was for Inspirational conversations Radio Show, to provide inspiration to those college students who are putting forth much effort yet, they are left with feelings of depletion. She believes that many of her fellow students want to soar but due to stress and mental exhaustion, many are unable to flap their wings. And as a result, many are left to ask, "is there truly a purpose in their day to day struggle." I explained how I initially declined her request because I had just presented this topic months ago. The show was titled, "The Back To School Blues." As a result, I declined the students' request.
 
I went on to share how a couple of days after deciding against the topic, I received an email marked of high importance. The emails sender stated how she had came across a wonderful story and felt that it would bless me. The message presenter went on to talk about the metamorphosis of a Caterpillar into a butterfly and how the story is a reminder of how the struggles we endure, are meant to strengthen and equip us for our destiny. The story was read and its' moral was: As you go through school and life, keep in mind that struggling is an important part of any growth experience. In fact, it is the struggle that causes you to develop the ability to fly.
 
I concluded my segment with stating how when the student sought out my wisdom, I felt that this was not the time to address her request but GOD saw differently. In addition, I also felt that I had no way of re packaging the message presented months ago. However, GOD solved my delimma by sending to me the very message, those students needed to hear at that very moment.
 
Much purpose in today's message on Inspirational Conversations Radio Show.
