Don’t Miss Your Connection
If we focus on God’s word John 10:10, “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” We will know that God does not want us to try to achieve things based only on our knowledge and understanding. In other words” just having enough to get by,” is not the way God wants His children to live. He wants us to have a joyful and full filled life where we have so much; we have enough to share with others. Where we have dreams, goals, and visions, and know through our faith in God we can overcome all obstacles and have a mind set of “more than a conquers.”
As I think about God’s promises of giving us hope, joy, and peace, I am reminded about the women in the bible with the issue of blood. She sought physician after physician and a healing never came about. Finally, she realized that her efforts were only sustaining her and not healing her. Exhausting all her means, she made a connection (total surrender) to Jesus by touching the hem of His garment, and she was made whole. She connected with God and allowed Him to meet her need of being healed.
Yes, God wants us to strive to achieve things in life, but not without first acknowledging Him and allowing Him to direct our footsteps. We have to realize that our efforts are made based on what we see at the time (limitations), but God knows what lies ahead.
You may be at a crossroad in life, you may have exhausted all your efforts in obtaining a better job, getting an education, etc., know that you have not failed at life, but you need to make a connection. And, God is the connection between living a full filled life versus: “Just getting by”. Trust Him!
