There are moments in life when things don’t make sense. Where you feel that you are waiting and longing for you to move. In this season, where you can feel that you are on the cusp of the new thing, that you are standing so close to the edge of something new, I tell you today not to throw aside the dream I have placed within you.
Maintain your resolve as you wait. The transition is worth anticipating, so be patient. Do not let yourself sink into hopelessness while you patiently wait for things to start flowing, for the dams to burst, and for the fresh things of the spirit to pour.
I am doing a new thing but the timing must be right. As you wait for my timing, don’t give in to the temptation to give up. I know that waiting can feel unfair and the temptation to give up is heavy in this moment. You must not entertain the voices that would distract you from your purpose. Do not entertain the thoughts that would push you to abandon what I have called you to.
You are stronger than you know; you can weather the storm. Do not despair the discomfort of this season – it is to prepare you for the new.
2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV) But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
