I hope you always keep in mind that good things take time and what’s worth having usually comes from doing hard things, over and over again.
of choosing consistency over comfort and convenience.
of choosing what you know will matter most in the end, over what feels easiest in the moment.
so if you’re going to give up anything,
let it be excuses, complaining, comparison, doubting Gods Word, laziness, unrealistic expectations or whatever else it is that can bring us to quit & give up when we’re actually able to keep going.
turn every worry,
every hard place and difficulty,
into a place to trust the Lord more.
Where we look for what God can do and is doing,
Rather than letting what we see or don’t see determine our response.
take every thought captive.
just because you think it, doesn’t mean it’s Truth & worth thinking.
just because you feel it, doesn’t mean it’s Truth & need to acted on.
we fail when we focus on what we have to go through rather than on seeing the bigger picture,
life is good because God is good,
not “God is only good if life is good”
nothing is neutral and whatever we do or don’t do, is sowing to reap an outcome.
nothing changes, if nothing changes.
so, look at the choices we’re making,
even the seemingly “small” ones.
they’re shaping who we’re becoming and where we’re headed.
change what needs to be changed.
I hope you see the blessings in every hard season.
I hope you’re determined enough to keep going through without compromise and selling ourselves short.
I hope we become better rather than bitter,
And let the hard times soften us towards Christ.
we’re not out of time & life is too precious to waste it
live faithfully and give up whatever is keeping you from living all in for the Lord & a life that brings Him glory.
you can do hard things and can stick with it for the long haul,
don’t stop short from living a life lived well for Christ.
for nothing will satisfy us;
no amount of success or fame or money or status or things will fill that void in our souls.
we need the Creator of it all and not His creation to be where we look too for what we’re chasing after.
