In our microwaved society, we have grown comfortable with trying to shortcut our growth.We realize we need to grow, but it is uncomfortable trying to settle into a process of change.

"Allow the anticipation of a new beginning to bring motivation to your heart. It can prompt you to overcome personal obstacles that have always held you down. It can stir you to make a more significant difference in the lives of those around you."

I don’t think we can overemphasise how important our confidence in the Lord is. To be confident in Him is to place the full weight of our belief in Him, never doubting that He will come through for us.
One thing I love about the Lord is the fact that He's not worried. In every situation we face - He doesn't just have any solution but the BEST solution.
If He's not worried, then why am I worried?
Be filled with the peace that the Lord is working even when/if we cannot see it.
"The way we continually talk about our own inabilities is an insult to our Creator. To complain over our incompetence is to accuse God falsely of having overlooked us. Get into the habit of examining from God’s perspective those things that sound so humble to men." OC
"The true test of a saint’s life is not successfulness but faithfulness on the human level of life. We tend to set up success in Christian work as our purpose, but our purpose should be to display the glory of God in human life."
Your placement, calling, & influence are very specific & purposeful. The circumstances in your life don’t just amount to “good opportunities.” These aren’t just “once in a lifetime” chances.

"A pang of anxiety gripped my heart. Fighting every day for the Truth was growing exhausting. I had determined in my heart not to become drained through this process, but…it felt like more freedom to give into a lie than to fight for the Truth."
