His Way in Me
We cannot help but live life wondering what it is that we are here for. We live trying to make life meaning; bring about change or to leave a lasting legacy. We all want to die empty, having done everything we believe has been placed in our hearts to do.
Sometimes in our pursuit for this we are faced with many hardships. This is usually because the devil will no just allow us to be our best possible selves - he hates us.
Trying to find solutions for life's problems we are often faced with we search God for miracles because oftentimes we do not have the capacity to win against our troubles.
God reminds us though that we will win regardless and sometimes when we feel like we are losing we are actually winning.
If you feel led by God into doing something that you believe adds to your purpose in life but also see a lot of things coming against you, leading you in desperation for a miracle do not panic. God's ways are not known to man and His ways bear more fruit than we can imagine.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:8-9 (NKJV)
It's okay to not understand anything God is doing. What God requires of us is trust that He knows what He is doing and that what He is doing will give us great reward.
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[a] have been called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28 (NIV)
God uses the things that come against us to prepare us for the things He has for us. Nothing can take what God has for us from us but adversary can instead prepare us so that we are ready. Do not faint if you do not understand what is going on or think that God has forsaken you - He hasn't; His ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts. We will never understand God, He does not want us to; He wants us to trust Him. This is what pleases Him - faith.
"For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified." Romans 8:29-30 (NIV)
