How to Balance Life’s Highs and Lows

In your life right now, are you enjoying a mountain view or looking up from a valley? Maybe you are somewhere in between.

Our lives ebb between highs and lows every day. I am learning to trust God wherever I stand, whether on the mountain, in the middle, or low in the valley.

Balancing Life’s Highs and Lows

When I was a teen, I read Dr. James Dobson’s Life on the Edge. I remember him saying that after a high, you should expect a low. Just as true, highs tend to follow lows. He also said some people experience higher highs and lower lows, based on their emotional wiring.

As a highly sensitive person, the lows are lower and the highs are higher for me. I’ve learned to anticipate both swings of the emotional pendulum. This knowledge helped me after the birth of my children, the realization of writing goals, and even when facing the winter blahs after every Christmas season.

When I invite God into my highs, lows, and middle places, they tend to level out to more reasonable levels. He offers me wisdom, perspective and comfort, which help me navigate each space with greater peace.

Today at Woman 2 Woman Ministries, I’m writing about how to strike a balance with God’s help. I include a key scripture for Christian meditation, which can help you refocus during highs and lows. Join me over at Woman 2 Woman Ministries to learn more.
