How To Overcome The Drama In Your Life

John 16:33

Topic: How to overcome the “drama in your life”

There is a hip-hop singer whose name is Mary J. Blige. Mary J. Blige had a hit record last year that was entitled, “No More Drama.” In this song, “No More Drama”, Mary J. Blige talks about how tired she was from having so much drama in her life. She talks about how tired she was from having a broken heart. She talks about how tired she was from being burned by some so-called friends. She talks about how tired she was from being hurt and, being in pain. She talks about how tired she was from being in tears. She talks about how tired she was from being in so much stress. She talks about how tired she was from being in bondage and that she wants to be set free from all the drama, and from all the madness that was taking place in her life. And because Mary J. Blige said she was so tired of the drama that was taking place in her life, she makes a decision to learn from her mistakes, and she makes a decision to move forward in her life by having have “no more drama” in her life by avoiding that which was causing the drama in her life, and by letting go of the person, or the thing that was causing her so much drama.

And whether you want to admit it or not, all of us has had some drama in our lives. Your drama may not be like Mary J. Blige’s drama, or Your drama may not be like my drama, or my drama may not be like your drama, but if you had some problems in your life; if you had some pain in your life; if you had some setbacks in your life; if you had some tragedies in you life; if you had some disappointments in you life; whatever had you going down instead of going up , or whatever had you going backwards instead of going forward; whatever it was, it was still a drama.

All of us has had some drama, or still have some drama that is taking place in our lives. Some of us have had some drama in our lives at school, in our homes, in our neighborhoods, or on our jobs. Some of us has had some drama in our marriages, with our children, with our friends, with our neighbors, with the classmates at school, with the co-workers, and the boss at work. If you look and read the newspaper, or watch the 6’ O clock news, you will discover there is nothing but drama taking place all over the world all over the world. There is drama going on in the white house, as well drama taking place in the church house. There are some politicians who are having some drama in their lives as well as there are some preachers who are having some drama in their lives.

And it does not matter if you are a male or a female; it does not matter if your are young or old; it does not matter if you who are black, white, red or yellow; it does not matter if you are educated or not; it does not matter if you are rich or poor; if you live on planet earth, you have had some drama or you still having some drama in your life. And if you are a person who claimed to never have had any drama in your life, just keep on living. Drama will be knocking at your doorsteps one day.

Now a question is being asked: Why do we have dramas in our lives?

1.The reason why we have some drama in our lives is because of sin that is in the world.

Romans 5:12 says, “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.”

Sin produces nothing but drama . Sin is the reason why we have so many problems, so many wars, so many sickness or diseases, and so many deaths in our world today. Sin is the reason why homes and marriages break up. If there was no sin in the world today, we would have no drama in the world. But because of sin is in the world, there is going to be all kinds of drama in our world today.

2.The second reason why we have drama in our lives is because of our disobedience. When we willfully disobey God and his Word, when we disobey our parents, when we disobey our teachers at school, or when we break the law of the land, we can bring some uneccesary drama into our lives such as bringing a curse upon yourself, getting a good whupping from your parents, getting kicked out of school, or spending a whole lot of time in jail. The reason why some people are in a bad shape and have so much drama in their lives is because they live their lives in disobedience to God. And usually a person who is always in disobedience and always bringing drama upon themselves is usually someone who don’t want nobody to tell them anything. They feel that they are grown and don’t need anybody to tell them anything because they know it all. But if they would learn to listen to somebody, but most importantly learn God’s word, they would not bring so much drama upon themselves.
