Gorilla Gathering message for the week:
Pressure.
We all feel it. We all feel it different ways. Pressure seems to mount this time of year. Small children feel the pressure of concerts, mid-year testing, church program parts, and gift-giving. Middle and high school students feel the pressure of grades, concerts, sports, and semester tests. Adults feel pressure in different ways: Last-minute gifts, end of the year pressures for work, food preparation for the holidays, giving their kids a great holiday experience, and asking themselves where the money will be coming from for all of those things!
We all feel pressure in different ways this time of year, regardless of age. But there are ways to deal with pressure. Coach Jon Gruden said, "You either feel pressure, or apply pressure." What he means is that you can let the pressure get to you, or you can apply a little pressure of your own.
There are several ways we can "apply pressure:"
Plan out your study time for those finals.
Make a list of things you have to accomplish in order.
Write out your budget.
Spend a little time each evening memorizing your part in the play.
Wake up each morning and set up your day for success!
We can all "apply pressure" in our own way.
But. . .
We also want to be aware of how hard the holidays can be. We don't know if this is someone's first Christmas without a loved one. We don't know if it is quite possibly someone's LAST Christmas. We don't know if money is tight for people. Maybe there is a very sick person in their life. Maybe they are struggling with depression. We just don't ever really know what others may be going through.
The solution to this is grace. While we are out there applying pressure, we need to never lose the ability to give a little grace to our fellow man. Be ready to give a kind word, or a helping hand, or a word of encouragement. Show patience with people. Grant them a little grace, especially in their failings. We will all need someone to show each of us a little grace at some point in our lives. May we always be prepared to give grace generously.
So this week is a two-part challenge:
1. Get out there and apply some pressure.
2. Be ready to show some grace to those who may need it.
Every day is a great day to be a Gorilla!
Have a graceful week! See you next year!
