Dipping Points, Breaking Points, Tipping Points & Turning Points

“So we’re not giving up. How could we!

Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish celebration prepared for us. There’s far more here than meets the eye. The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can’t see now will last forever.”

(Citation - 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 MSG)

We often judge other people by what we hear about them, read about them or watch other people talk about them. You’ve probably heard the old adage that says: “Be careful pointing a finger at someone else; you’ll have three fingers pointing right back at yourself.

Every person you meet contains valuable information for your spiritual growth. Each one of us travels through life seasons where parts of our character go through the cycle of birth and death until there’s the final season - either eternal life or forever separation from God.

Each season represents a point in time, a space for you to grow or decay and a guarantee that what you’ve done will occupy a record in history.

Just as there are four seasons, there are four points:

1. Dipping Point - this is where God allows you an experience, good or bad, that happens for your benefit. Wisdom gained in the dipping prevents future tripping (making the same mistake again.)

2. Breaking Point - God takes to the end of your capabilities until you have nowhere to turn, but Him. You can refuse, become hard hearted, but that would open the door to evil. You don’t want to go there.

3. Tipping Point - This is the great “Ah Ha” moment where you begin to understand the lesson God us trying to teach you.

4. Turning Point - Once you’ve totally surrendered to God, the overwhelming peace that transcends all understanding settles in your soul. You’re walking in a new direction with fresh wisdom, insight and knowledge.

When listening to the stories of other people going through the seasons and points of life, always remember that only God knows their hearts. Believe in the best for all people. Just sayin…..

Thanks for your time. Go do something nice for somebody. Jesus loves you and so do we.
