Part 3 of Dreams series

Have you ever been afraid that God is going to call you to something that you would hate and dread? Say you hate camping and roughing it….and you fear someday God will call you to the mission fields of the deepest parts of Africa and you will not be strong enough to say yes and you will miss your calling? Anyone? Afraid to find out what your call is for fear of what it will require? If you haven’t figured it out already. I have some good news for you……that isn’t going to happen. That isn’t God’s plan.

Psalm 103:5

who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.


Philippians 1:4-6

In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus


Ephesians 2:10

For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.


2 Timothy 1:9

who has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace.


Psalm 138:8

The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O LORD, endures forever—
do not abandon the works of your hands.


Romans 11:29

for God's gifts and His call are irrevocable.


God wants what is best for us. And if we are truly seeking to do His will for our lives…..and not our own……then He will honor that. God knows our heart. He knows where are motives are…he knows what is really important to him. If he knows you are seeking to glorify him and follow his lead He will continue to make everything that happens work towards good in our lives. And even if we are slow to coming to our gifts and talents He still wants to use us. He still will allow us to fulfill our destiny if we will only trust and follow Him. God is a very patient God. He will wait on you as you walk the path closer to him. He wants the relationship. He wants to be intimate with you.
