On your rear side mirrors there is a statement "objects in your mirror are closer than you think" When you see that it means be careful and keep your eyes open, because things are closer than you think!
Stay Full of Hope
God has put dreams and desires in your heart. Sometimes obstacles get in your way to cloud your vision , you interpret false readings because things appear deceptively far away. When things are falling apart and it takes a long time we loose our enthusiasm.
That is when the negative thoughts really pile up and we say:
I will never get well, I will never get out of debt, this legal situation will never turn around!
Hebrews 10:35
35 So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.
Many times we miss out on Gods mercy and greatness because we give up!
We need to keep believing, keep hoping, keep praying, stay in faith!
When things get further out of control, dig your heals in!
You are closer to your Victory than you think!
Change your attitude. Don't stop believing!
I have bread horses and raised the babies. When the horses are going through their gestation period, the first few months not a lot changes, but in those last 3 months a lot of things change. The foal gets more active, the mare gets uncomfortable, gains more weight, the physical combination changes the disposition, a lot! They get meaner, harder to handle, less cooperative.
Anyone who has a wife that has been pregnant knows what I am talking about, as things change right before birth the pain and feelings get worse until the baby comes, then after the birth, the JOY begins!
After the pain, the discomfort, the uneasiness, the crying and wailing and you see that new foal or in human terms that beautiful daughter, of which I had two, what a blessing.
How quickly you forget all the adversity and start basking in the joy.
This may be the greatest struggle you have ever faced, the greatest adversity you have ever dealt with, but remember this, It is always darkest right before dawn.
You may have struggled for 2 years , but just a little more faith and a little more persevering.
If you will get your second wind!
This could be the day you get the break you need.
Zechariah 9:12
12 Return to your fortress, O prisoners of hope;
even now I announce that I will restore twice as much to you.
Never Loose your Faith Be a prisoner of Hope.
What is a prisoner? It is a person who is confined, chained, restrained.
What is hope? To wish for something with expectation of its fulfillment.
To have confidence; trust.
So if you are a prisoner of Hope you are chained with an expectation of fulfillment.
Nothing can take your Hope!
God is still on his throne! God is still in charge!
