Being able to rise 365 days a year is a struggle for many people of all ages.
As I tell you that they find it easy to rise each new day they are given, then I would
question the truthfulness of that person.
Most likely they are just trying to save face.
Many reasons make it difficult to rise each day.
There have been times throughout my life where I regretted making it through the night and
a new day was now facing me.
Personally, I struggle daily with PTSD which brings with it constant anxiety and depression.
This PTSD is a combination of my time in the service and my childhood.
For my service I suffer from survivor's remorse and survival's guilt due to the fact that
I get to continue to live while those that were close to me do not.
As for my childhood, it was one knitted with abandonment and loneliness, abuse, verbal,
physical, and sexual.
These things make it difficult to rise each day and many others have their stories that
make rising for them difficult.
Knowing that rising each day is a struggle for so many is what encouraged me to bring
this podcast to you.
This podcast Rising 365 is all about helping others rise 365 days a year.
Not in a way that is begrudging but in a way that is fulfilling.
Many things that are going to be shared are personal and the number one thing that is
personal to me is being a Jesus follower.
But what encourages me to rise is largely derived from God's Word at the Bible.
There are other tangible things that are not from the Bible but what I do and I know if
you did them too that you could rise.
Rising 365 will also have conversation with others that rise 365 days a year and find their
days fulfilling.
I am by no means a therapist or an expert, I am just a guy who struggles with rising
every day but through understanding of my personal struggles and seeking ways in order
to rise and I inspired to share with you.
So thanks for pressing play.
I look forward to you finding encouragement each episode, each new day you are given.
To support this podcast you can do that by booking me as a speaker for your upcoming
conference, your school assemblies, youth group, Bible studies or any other special event where

Do that, just shoot me a message or email me at rising247365 at gmail.com.
Until next time, I am Mike Pina, encouraging you to rise and meet the gift of a new day
