Go, Get ‘Em! April 3, 2023

“Destiny s not a matter of chance; it is a matter of choice. It’s not a thing to be waited for; it is a thing to be achieved.” - William J. Bryan

When we look at successful people, we probably imagine that they are just luckier than we are, better at making connections or being the right place at the right time. Chances are, they aren’t luckier or more blessed or in any way slated for more favor, they probably are people who persevered. They probably didn’t wait for destiny to ride in on a white horse. They went seeking destiny instead.

It’s not easy for us to take a great leap of faith and try something we haven’t tried or move in a direction that feels foreign. When we have to get out of our comfort zones, we aren’t as sure of our steps.

God is! God still knows what the steps are that you have to take and He goes before you in your pursuits to help page the way for you. Only you can choose the moment when you’ll decide to act. Just be reassured that when you’re ready to go out there, you won’t go alone!

“A desire accomplished is sweet to the soul.” - Proverbs 13:19 NKJV

Let us pray: Lord, you know what we need to do and how we’ll get there. Help us to take the most direct route to the things You want us to achieve by following You more closely. Father God, hear our prayers of intentions from today, from our prayer wall and for any unmentioned prayers in our hearts.. In Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen.
