Getting Through The Wilderness and Learning From It
When we here stories about Jesus being led to the wilderness what do we envision? Do we envision a dark, deserted place? Is that some place you would never journey too? Is that some place that have already been?A wilderness period can be seen as a period where we are tested mentally, physically and or spiritually. It's those pockets of times in our lives where things are just challenging. I'm not going to sugar coat this. Life's wilderness periods suck. They take a lot out of us. Can anything positive come out of our wilderness periods though? The answer is yes! We may not see it during these tough times but on the other side there is always something we can learn about ourselves and/or those around us.I pray for anyone going through a wilderness period. After you have made it through take some time to recover. After you have recovered from your experience do the following:1. Thank God2. Write down what you have learned3. Share your lesson and experience with others to help them grow.

A wilderness period can be seen as a period where we are tested mentally, physically and or spiritually. It’s those pockets of times in our lives where things are just challenging.
I’m not going to sugar coat this. Life’s wilderness periods suck. They take a lot out of us. Can anything positive come out of our wilderness periods though? The answer is yes! We may not see it during these tough times but on the other side there is always something we can learn about ourselves and/or those around us.
I pray for anyone going through a wilderness period. After you have made it through take some time to recover. After you have recovered from your experience do the following:
1. Thank God
2. Write down what you have learned
3. Share your lesson and experience with others to help them grow.
