There will be moments in life where people will try to underestimate you, to look down on you, but don’t let the way they treat you determine your value. God will take everything you think is not enough and turn it in more than enough.
Quit worrying about what other people say about you, the negative comments, those are all distractions. You don’t have to defend yourself, God said that He will defend you and He will protect your reputation.
God will use people who are against you to move you into your purpose. People can’t override what God has ordained for you. Bad breaks, delays, detours, injustice can’t stop your destiny. It’s just the opposite; they’re moving you into your destiny.
God never promised that we wouldn’t have difficulties, but He did promise He would give us strength for every battle. He would take what was meant for harm and use to our advantage. Live out of a place of peace, a place of trust. It may not happen the way you thought, but God’s ways are better than our ways. God knows what’s best for you. He’s got this.
He hasn’t brought you this far to leave you. Release the worry; release the frustration; release having to know all the details. There will always be situations that we don’t understand, problems that look too big, obstacles that seem permanent. That’s a test.
Will you go through life worried, wondering if it’s going work out, discouraged because it’s taking so long, or will you enter into rest? Will you believe that God is in control and that He will get you to where you’re supposed to be?
There will be moments in our lives where the voice of God will be like a whisper, like a subtle instruction deep inside of us. The Holy Spirit will use this impression to guide us, bless us and help accomplish our God given destiny.
