TIMING!

Habakkuk 2:3

For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay.

 

So you have a vision from GOD.  There is a time God has appointed for each moment of your life.  Do not rush God. Do not question God. Do not think God to be slow!  I am not blessed with the gift of patients. I have been going to school so long trying to obtain my Master’s degree to continue moving towards the call God has placed over me. I have tried to push God only to be made to wait even longer.  God makes us wait like the care taker of a vineyard who tends to his garden.  God is cultivating each of us to fit into a perfect moment.  Our lives are perfectly planned and even though we try to rush things, and sometimes show God we need more time to develop, God is faithful.

So what can you do?

Please enjoy the process of God’s cultivation and timing.  Please push yourself and never God.  Ask God to help you remember your call and keep you motivated.   God does not lie and if you stay close to him you will stay focused.  Do not do like so many and find a new vision for yourself that seems easier and faster than what God has placed in your heart!  The vision is waiting and its time is on the way.   Reaching your goals in life is not like picking up your food at the second window.  Realize the good things worth waiting for in life take planning and patients.  All of the Old Testament was pointing and setting up the arrival of Jesus Christ.  The good news and the point of the Bible is Jesus.  The world waited for Him and when He came they didn’t recognize Him.  Do not miss “it” because you have replaced “it” with your alternative vision.  See it through!  Wait on God’s time, he will not be late.

 

Be encouraged!

Never Lose You!

Mark 8:36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? _____________________________________________________ The world would have you believe that it has all of the answers.   The world will tell you that what you see, hear, feel, touch and smell is all that is real and worth living for.   But you may not know or understand that living for the rewards of this world come at a cost.   The world’s influence, when used as the blueprint for living, takes your heart and shapes it to its will leaving you an empty shell of who you really are. Nothing in this world is worth changing who you are in Christ.   There is no middle ground in the issue.   Yes, we are all a work in progress and live in this world, but who we are is not dictated by anything or anyone in this world.   Who you are is worth more than whatever this world has to offer.   Do not chase the image the world is selling you.   Unless...

TIME!

James 4:14   Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. __________________________________________________________ Our plans and plots are events that we try to cram into the short time we have on this earth.   The term YOLO is very true.   We only have one life, and one short chance to live and make a difference in this world.   When we make plans for our lives we are, at best, looking at a very small slice of time.   Our time is like a seed.   A seed is small!  Yet it will leave a legacy that will be manifested in the tree and fruit that is produced.   The seed will die but what it leaves behind speaks to what was planted.   What have you decided to do with your time?   Strive to let your life edify God and leave a legacy of love via your life of expression.   Express the gift that God has given you through His son Jesus Chris...

WHERE IS YOUR HEART?

Matthew 6:19-21 19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. _____________________________________________________________ We live in a time and society that has all of us planning, working, toiling and pressing forward each day.  Every moment of our time and efforts press us towards goals and a future we carefully attempt to plan for.  Some of  us are so engulfed and focused on these plans and the temporal benefits of the perceived outcomes our plans will achieve. However, as christians our existence is more than the time we have in this world. We must make an investment into eternity.   "HOW DO WE DO THIS?" you may ask!   We must shift our thoughts and priori...
