Stick With It

"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'"
(Jeremiah 29:11)

The Scripture tells us that without vision, people perish. 

If you don't have a dream or vision for your life, then you're not really going to reach your fullest potential. 

Maybe at one time you had a dream, but you went through some disappointments or setbacks. 

Things didn't turn out the way you planned. 

But here's a key: when one dream dies, dream another dream. 

Just because it didn't work out the way you had it planned doesn't mean that God doesn't have another plan.

You cannot allow one disappointment or even a series of disappointments to convince you that your dream is over. 

It's time to dig your heels in and hold on to the promises in your heart. 

Stir up those God-given dreams today and watch Him pour out His favor and blessing upon you and fulfill every desire in your heart!

A Prayer for Today

"Father in heaven, I come humbly to You. I give You my past, my disappointments, my brokenness. Fill me with Your hope and expectation and give me the dreams and desires that You have in store for my life in Jesus' name. 
Amen."

Stay STRONG!

Trust the Timing!!

My times are in your hands…"
   
    (Psalm 31:15, NIV)

In life, oftentimes we are waiting for something; waiting for a dream to come to pass, waiting to meet the right person, waiting for a problem to turn around. 

When things aren't happening as fast as we would like, it's easy to get frustrated. 

But you have to realize that the moment you prayed, God established a set time to bring the promise to pass.

God has a set time for your opportunity. 

There is a set time for that problem to turn around, a set time for your healing, your promotion, your breakthrough. 

It may be tomorrow, or next week, or five years from now. 

But when you understand the time has already been set, it takes all the pressure off. 

You won't live worried, wondering when this is ever going to happen! 

You'll relax and enjoy your life knowing that the promise has already been scheduled, and your answer is on the way!

A Prayer for Today

"Father, I choose to trust in Your timing. I trust that You have my best in mind. I believe that You are working behind the scenes on my behalf. Thank You for ordering my steps and leading me in the life of blessing You have in store for me in Jesus' name. 
Amen."
