We plan for our futures and God has given us visions about our future. But what happens when right now doesn’t equal what God has shown you? It is a fact that things are not adding up for you and that things do not seem to be working out in your favor. But in spite of all that, it is also a fact that God desire good things for us. The Bible says, that God’s thoughts towards us are good and that God desires to bless us exceedingly abundantly above all that you can imagine or think.  So again, what happens when right now doesn’t look like it’s ever going to add up to God’s future for you…

We continue believing. We continue praying. We don’t give up on our walk with Christ because our cross got heavier than we thought it would. Doubt makes us feel mentally heavy. It clouds your mind and makes what we know in the spirit to be true hard to conceive in the natural. Our spirit knows that God will bring us out. Our natural side; our emotions and feelings, are all affected by rational thought. Rationally, it looks like it will never happen; but spiritually, God does not need the answer to be rationally achieved.  God can make things happen out of nowhere.

It does get tough sometimes, but we must stay in the Will of God. We check our vision often to see if it still lines up with The Word. If it matches The Word, we  continue pressing toward that vision because we know from The Word that it has to come to be.

Remember, the race is not given to the swift or the strong, but to those who endure to the end.
