How to Overcoming Obstacles in Life
Have you read the biblical story about Gideon? Gideon had a call for a great purpose, but he refused the call, testing God instead of complying. Gideon’s story is rich in lessons that we can borrow and apply in our lives to help us overcome obstacles.
8 Basic Principles to Overcoming Obstacles:
- Answer the call
- We do not overcome the things we are dealing with right now for self-glorification
- Fear is contagious
- Focus on the objective that you want to accomplish and not the obstacle
- Be grateful for this chance to serve
- Faith is contagious
- Trust that the source is working on the other tent for the greater good
- Be humble

Magic Quotes from Mark J
Ego is the only real enemy which stands for easing good or easing God out.
Start everything you do with greater power than yourself. Otherwise, you are going to be vulnerable to self- centeredness.
If we’re aligned with true service and encouragement, we will get encouragement.
Stop letting the world tell you what makes you fit in. Why fit in when you were born to stand out.
Like fear, faith is also contagious.
Success is a service. Give more to get more.
Myths show us how to live.
Every adversity does have a seed for equal or a greater benefit.
The only meaning your life is ever going to have is the meaning you give it.
