So many times, people get caught up in their old way of doing things. I know I do. We watch the same shows, eat the same food, and repeat the same routines over and over again. When a person gets steeped in their old ways, its hard to imagine or dream of anything new or exciting. We can get the mindset that nothing will ever change and that no new ground will ever be gained. Our future, at times, seems hopeless.
But God tells us in Jeremiah 29:11..."For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
If you are feeling overwhelmed and hopeless today, there is hope for you. God has a wonderful plan for your life. He wants to use you for His glory. His plans for you are much bigger than what you could ever have for yourself. We tend to allow our current situation, which appears to us to be permanent, to give us a false sense of no hope.
Lift up your countenance today, and know that things will change. God will do what He said. I am constantly drawn back to the scripture in 2 Timothy 2:13 which says "If we believe not, yet He abideth faithful, He cannot deny Himself." God will perform His word!
Facing Forward!
