I have some questions for you. How much do you visualize where you want God to take you? How often do you see yourself going to big places? Doing big things? Talking to the people you never imagined you'd talk to? Sitting next to a person you always admired from afar? What do you imagine for yourself? What do you dream about? What has eluded you, because you didn't think you were worthy of it?
If any of those answers are the answers that have stopped your flow, I've come to tell you that it's a new day and your vision is coming to fruition. Oh yes and I don't want anyone else telling themselves what I used to, which was, 'God this is just too big and it's going to take much work' and end up doing nothing like I did. I just sat around and laid around. I thought others had more of that something special that I didn't have. While in essence they had what they had and I had what I had. Our own gifts. What I've come to realize is that God has something for each and everyone of us. "Big" is in the eye of the beholder and differs from person to person. Your big may not my big and my big may not be your big. God has different bigs -- different plans for each of us. Yet, know this: no group of people has a lock on giftedness that we don't have. God has made each one of us in His own image and He doesn't make junk. He blessed everyone He made.
In Genesis 15:1, God told Abram in a vision, "do not fear, Abram, I am a shield to you; Your reward shall be very great." And as we know, God kept His promise. Abram became Abraham and he indeed became great. So don't think anybody has a lock on anything you want to do or anybody has a monopoly on it, because they don't. God is a big God. There is room for you too. So stay faithful and trust that God's ways are better than our ways and His plans are just that -- His -- not ours. So I want to encourage you to keep your vision forefront and centered, because it will come.Believe that. Continue to revisit it often and keep walking it out. That means doing everything positive that goes forward. Continue the work you're doing. Any upward motion is one step closer to seeing the greatness the Lord will do in your life. And if God gave you the vision, it will come.
