We will never be able to finish our journey in our own strength. We must join hands with the One who gives us the strength. It's okay to make plans, but we must be open to changes in those plans. He may have other ideas.
God's path is definitely not easy. Jesus said we would have trouble. We must remember that the road to greater things is not marked by easy answers. Never pray for an easier life, pray to be a stronger person.
I shudder to think all I would have missed had I not gotten on God's path! The good thing is; we will have a story to tell when we take God's path. Life is not wreckage to be saved out of the world but an investment to be used in the world.
We shouldn't try to skip ahead and take shortcuts. We need to concentrate on the task that is right before us and do our very best at that. Then trust God to show us what to do next. He will guide us step by step, leading us along a path of peace.
God's plan encompasses everyone. Every nation. Every race. All cultures. His message of peace through faith in Christ is universal.
Nothing is too difficult for Him....We can't, but He can! He chooses to work through us - with all our weaknesses and struggles - to carry out His plans. It's because of our weaknesses that we are able to receive His power. Our struggles teach us to depend on Him.
Under Heaven's lock and key, we are protected by the most efficient security system available ~ the power of God. Let's forget how impossible our journey looks and do what He's called us to do in spite of it. When we act in faith, He will honor our faithfulness.
Blessings,
