Moving forward - seeing hope and passion and running toward it

You always want to do you best in your life, but at time it seems your just trying to get through the day.

So many people these days are suffering from depression, so many without sight of anything greater. I'm no exception, sometimes I loose all idea of where i'm headed. You see, I think we get bogged down and think of things only attainable at our current "level". Things is, most of the time, there isn't very much attainable at that level anyway.

So what? What now? All I know is that nothing can be done without Jesus. The idea of where we want to be, what we should be doing, what seems impossible... it can be achieved. And things even greater than we thought if we put our hope in God through Christ. 

Here is what I think you can do:

1. Lay down everything: every plan, your ambitions, your possessions, your time - give them to God.

2. Pray to God the Father (knowing he loves to listen because you know Jesus) for hope and vision.

3. Hold on to hope, vision, ambitions that God gives. Even if they seem impossible, if we don't hold on then what can God do.

(Perhaps, to help with this try to find a biblical account that is relative and use it for motivation). Do every little thing you can do prayerfully, but never let go of that huge vision. It will give you the passion to continue the fight. Don't set you sights to low, don't make it easier for God, he doesn't need your help to fulfill what you think is impossible. If something seems to easy, then think, is it from God. God has big plans. Be still and quiet do your best to hear from God, test everything by scripture.

It is not about us doing the impossible, it is about running forward in faith knowing that something is good and worthy to be attained, and seeing God do the impossible. 

Thank Jesus, for all things are possible through him.
