A few months ago, God gave me a vision for something. Something different. Something challenging. I ignored it up to this point, knowing that it would take a lot to make it successful.
Then, this week, I went to God asking for direction, guidance, and vision.
I wonder if He laughed :).
Whether He laughed or not, I’m sure I’ll find out later, but I know He gave me another glimpse of what my future could look like.
I’m not ignoring it this time. I’m not going to fear. I’m definitely not backing down.
“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also with Him graciously give all things? Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect?” – Romans 8:31-33
I know this is a salvation-oriented passage, but don’t you think it applies to what God calls us to do as well? Does our God fail? Isn’t He trustworthy?
When I was in college at Liberty University, Jerry Falwell used to ask us a question that still haunts me:
“What would you do for God if you knew you wouldn’t fail?”
In the face of problems and challenges, do we back down? Is our God that small?
Mine’s not, and I’m not backing down. Are you?
