I know what it feels like to start a project and not
finish it or to put a dream on hold because other things got in the way. I am
sure we've all experienced frustrations at some point in our life, losing the
zeal we started with. Today let’s remember that God desires to help us finish
whatever we start. The Bible says, "With God all things are possible"
(Matthew 19:26).When we feel a passion for doing something, most often God
put that desire in us. Ignoring this passion often leaves us unfulfilled and we
spend our life towing paths that do not satisfy. It is never late to press the reset button and start over.
Even when we're tempted to think that it's too late, with God, it's never too
late. And God will give us what we need, especially in times of adversity.
Remember that stepping out to do what God has planned for us
doesn’t mean the absence of opposition or a jolly ride. We must be ready to
stand our ground when opposition comes along. Paul said, "A wide door of opportunity for effectual service has
opened to me…and there are many adversaries" (1 Corinthians 16:9). Adversaries are like giants, they come in different forms
-little ones and big ones. They come like a mental attack, through a person
close to you, or through financial strains.The devil sets us up to get us upset. He knows that when we
are upset, we stop hearing from God and start hearing is our own frustration
and thoughts, and become provoked at others.
However, to fulfil God's call on
your life, you have to learn how to face adversity and overcome it. We must
ignore the criticism and remember the past victories God has given you,
especially in those trying times. Don’t look at how far you have to go but look
at how far you have come. Watch what you
say and speak the Word over every situation. We must be totally dependent on
God. We don't need to look at ourselves rather we need to look at God knowing
that with Him, all things are possible.
