Review The Vision

imagesofvalor@gmail.com (iVALor) — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 02:42:00 +0000

THE JOURNEY IS NOT JUST A WALK

BUT

A LONG TRIP

WITH MANY STOPS ALONG THE WAY

When I am to weary to continue, I have to "review the vision",

When I am desperate to take control of my own destiny, I have to "review the vision",

When I feel that all that I have tried to do seems in vain, I have to "review the vision",

When I feel like it is not worth the wait any more, I have to "review the vision",

When I feel like other people who had no regard for God or His Word seem to have succeeded,

I have to "review the vision",

When I am ignored, dismissed, and over looked, I have to "review the vision",

When I just cannot see my way through the foolishness, I have to "review the vision",

When my faith seems to be fading and I feel weak, I have to "review the vision",

When I feel like all of my right decisions have not gotten the results I wanted, I have to "review the vision",

When I my strength dissipates, I have to "review the vision",

When I feel I cannot go another further, I have to "review the vision",

"Reviewing the vision", allows me to see the invisible, believe the impossible and do the unthinkable.

"Reviewing the vision", takes me back to the "Word of God" that builds my faith daily.

"Reviewing the vision", gives me the strength to keep it moving.

Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve. Napoleon Hill

Guard Your Attitude!

May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father encourage you and strengthen you in every good thing you do and say. 2 Thessalonians 2:16

The moment I received my "call to ministry", My life became a ministry and the ministry became my life. I had expectations of how things would be but they were just the opposite. I began this journey in ministry afraid of the people faces, the people words and I developed a certain attitude. As I came to know the Lord in a more personal way, my attitude changed (the way I was thinking and feeling). Then my whole life changed! It was not important what the people faces looked like or what they thought because the power in me was far greater than what I saw on their faces or what they said out of their mouth.

"What matters more than the type of service is the heart behind the service. A bad attitude spoils the gife we leave on the altar for God." Max Lucado, GRACE

Lost Vision

What do you do when the vision and the reality of your life does not match?

Pray, pray, pray and pray until God moves on your behalf before you make a a move, or decision to regain vision.
Try to find out where you lost sight of the original vision.
Look for ways to revision.
Identify people who are doing what you want to do and begin to emulate what they have done to get on track.
Keep believing, hoping and expecting miracles to happen.

Is it tough, yes! Can it be heart wrenching, without a doubt! Will you want to give up, yes you will! BUT, don't do it, TRUST the GOD who SEES and KNOW EVERYTHING! Develop your FAITH because without it, you cannot please God. Even when you can't trace the working of God's power you must trust God's Word every hour.

Finding faith in the Middle passage, how long will this part last? I'm in search of meaning, the authentic, the pure, the richness that exist in the legitimacy of real character ... hmm mm ...! I am not the only one, there are others ... they will speak eventually ... don't wait ... speak now ...

Keep Fighting!

I refuse to die and UN-lived life! I am fighting to break this cycle ... failing my way to success. "Once you stop fighting for what you want, what you don't want will take over ... Greatness is a choice that you have to make everyday ..." L.B.

You Can Make It!

I can say that at times the "journey" through the middle passage is so intense, painful, and debilitating. God puts us on the potters wheel to restructure and mold us over and over again. I am becoming numb in the process, numb to opinions from others, my fleshly desires, and to being politically correct. For me, I am identifying with the feeling of abandonment even though I know that God is present and watches my every move, listens to every word and has sees my tears. Even though I cannot articulate or see what God is creating through this process, I am certain that God is at work. None of us want to dye to our own 'will" but in order to live unto the Lord we MUST die to self. When I struggle with being obedient I realize that I am not dead yet but STILL dying. This process is long but necessary and I have decided to position myself for God to finish God's work in me. I wait for the day that I too, can say like Jesus did, "It is finished."

Thought for today.

Committed: There Are No Halfhearted Champions?

My journey has required that I remain committed even when I have wanted to and thought about giving up! I am so thankful that I was grounded in a God bigger than me.

The Journey

Life is a journey. Have you discovered where you are in the journey? What are you feeling? What are you doing? Has there been any progress, setbacks or any small successes?
