As you rely on His strength and allow your heart to be filled with hope, you’re going to find a new determination and tenacity that you didn’t know was there before. Hope doesn’t disappoint. But misplaced hope does. Hoping in our own ability to accomplish things never ends well. God wants to strengthen your spirit with might as you put your hope in Him. Trusting in His Ways I wasn’t aware I struggled with trust until God put an impossible dream in front of me. When fear and lack take the driver’s seat, we tend to logically try to figure out how it’s all going to work out. In John 6, Jesus is met by a massive crowd of hungry people to feed. He already knew how he was going to feed them but he asks Philip, “Where will we buy enough food to feed all these people?” Philip comes up with a response based on what he saw in the natural. Jesus is continually inviting us to see from His vantage point. When we rely on our own strength and abilities, we miss the joy of leaning. Ask Jesus to show you His way of doing things. Keep going! Keep surrendering your dreams and all He’s promised you to Him. They were first birthed in His heart to begin with. Watch as He takes your little something and multiplies it. Don’t lose heart. Jesus is so faithful to finish all He started in you. The process, the journey is all worth it. |
