Panama: On The Brink

Panama a country on the brink .....

On the brink of moving forward as a whole. As I spent a week in Panama. This past week was different, then all the other times I've been before. For the first time I saw Panama as a country on the move. Tourism is up, the economy is as good as it can get, especially with currently economic times. But like anything else, the people seem to be moving forwards and not backwards. Panama is starting to garner more international attention, building new, bigger and taller infrastructure. Panama is on the brink ...

However, there is still a lot to be done. There are many issues face the country that still need improvement. But I have never seen the people, so hopeful.

Which got me thinking... many of us are on the brink of something? Good or bad? Some of us, are all the brink of many exciting things. While others, may be on the brink of losing it all. We lean one way, or the other. Seeing the potential in everything, while others may see lost potential. But like anything else, we cannot do it alone. Panama recent success still hinges on the Panamanians as a whole.

Some of us, may be on the brink. I pray and hope you praise God for those who are the good side of things. For those on the bad side of things, sustain, keep the faith, allow God to take over. Move yourself from the cliff, to avoid free fall.

That's what I learned in my week in Panama. That many people are on the brink.
