You are the one for the job
“God will continually revitalize you, implanting within you the passion to do what pleases him. ”
The older I get, the more convinced I am that God wants to do great things on this earth through us, His children.
Man oh man - I sure do not want to miss out on all that He has in store for me to do. You either?
In my twenties and thirties, I may have had this same passion to dream big with God for my future, but I lacked some basic common sense and valuable wisdom to go along with it.
I’m now in the later part of my forties praying for God to continually revitalize me with passion to do what pleases Him.
Oh how I want to run this race well.
This morning He nudged me to jot down a few things He’s showing me about my faith walk:
-Every week should include a sacred sabbath. And I get to be in control of when and how I’ll choose to practice it.
-Nothing happens by chance. The truth is that we get to partner with God, but we have to be willing to do the hard work.
-There is a time for dreaming BIG with God but there is also a need to put a plan in place for it to be fulfilled.
- I am finite. I have limits. I can burnout, therefore; self-care and healthy disciplines must be put in place to protect me from myself.
-The hard seasons I’ve endured required tenacity and grit and I’ll need them again and again.
-Building a Godly family takes an entire lifetime not just one season.
-My best years are ahead of me. This is a mindset I’ll need to embrace going forward.
