Destined for Greatness: Your Tuesday Morning Inspiration with Gerald Chinogara
One thing for certain is that we are now living in times requiring us to deal with challenges for which they are no precedence. Times such as these can immobilize you to easily accept that whatever situation you are in is your portion in life. However, the truth is we dishonour the world and degrade our genius when we use this time unproductively, escaping into distraction and medicating ourselves with diversion instead of making some brave goals and audacious ambitions that will set us on a trajectory to achieve remarkable results. It is very much understandable that when we go through bad experiences pain is birthed in our lives and take up residence until something greater crowds it out.
God sees the state of our hearts when no one else does. He knows what caused the pain and why it continues. No trauma inflicted on us lessens our value in His eyes or causes Him to stop loving us. No storm is too massive that He can’t help His child through it even when you are in doubt what to do next. God’s Word, just like a giant divine flashlight, illuminates our path in life. The light of His Word gives us the direction and guidance we need to take the next step. The Word is living, active and applicable to any and every situation we face. The Word is the most powerful potent force in the world.
If you are finding yourself at crossroads, and not sure which way to turn and finding yourself overwhelmed with all this uncertainty engulfing us, it is best to seek God because only Him can illuminate the next step, giving vision and direction. Next time that you think something is too big of a mess in your life, it really isn’t. It may take some time to get corrected, but it will. Believe God, cast your burdens on Him, and let Him see you through it. Use this season to step into the possibility, mastery and unleash the genius within you the world is craving to see. Use any fear surfacing to heal, grow and strengthen yourself. Hard times activate hidden wounds that can be remedied, making you stronger, wiser and more vibrant.
