Life is a test or a game of chess. Whatever analogy you use, the truth is that as we live, life will present us all with all kind of challenges. But if you think about it, this may be a good thing. Why? Life will force us to see our purpose...our true potential, which is what helps us to overcome struggles. If life is indeed a game, then it is our God given potential and purpose that helps us to play our "A" game and win. But there are times where we allow distractions to keep us from giving it our all. It is those distractions that will keep us from playing our "A" game. Don't let distractions keep you from fulfilling your purpose. Don't let distractions keep you from being your best self. Sometimes, its those messy distractions that's keeping us from our destiny.
