Destiny lies in your discomfort. If it were easy then everybody would be doing it. Even then no one would be able to do it like you. As you enter the new year please take stock of the gifts and talents that God has placed in you. This may involve looking back a bit just to see how He showed up in your life previously, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Don’t park there though! Keep it moving. Your source of discomfort many times is where your destiny lies. None of us want to be the bearer or receiver of bad news, and of course no one wants to feel hurt and pain. The trick is to remember that all things work for the good of those who serve the Lord and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28).
As I say in my new book, “Walking in Your Season of Receiving – Seven Steps to Recognizing God When you Can’t see Him,” ‘you don’t always have to be a participant in your own life. It’s okay to just sit on the sideline sometimes and watch God work. As participants we tend to doodle and dabble and move things around to get our desired result, while getting in God’s way. If you simply be still you may see God’s blessings come from unexpected sources.’ I have truly lived this over the past three years. Once I surrendered all control to God for my life, I watched Him take really good care of me. And He will do the same thing for you as long as you do not curse the darkness or murmur in the wilderness. Work with what you have instead of complaining about what you do not have. God can take your little bit and turn it into an amazing blessing in a matter of seconds. Not days, not weeks, not months, but SECONDS! It is time to allow your discomfort to create the pathway to your destiny.
Awesome word as usual Geri!!!
