A good friend of mine recently told me that I am going to go from
Glory to Glory
After he told me this, I took some time to ponder what that means for me in this season and how I feel about it.
When you are living this life, when you are really living, breathing, tasting, seeing, smelling, realizing, noticing, do you know what happens? Besides not missing anything you get to walk such a wonderful journey with God and with the people he has placed in your life! Did you know that each and every person that you meet enters your life for a reason? God ordains and orchestrates each and every connection, friendship, relationship, place, time, season!
This particular season on my life has been such a mixed bag- a mixed bag of not only up as downs but a bunch of stop signs, frustration, joy, excitement, worry, faith, love, trust, learning, changes and so much more!
So after I pondered what my friend told me and what it meant to me, God brought a lot of things to the surface to me! I realized that the way everything has been happening in my life and HIS timing of everything has been Exactly the right timing! However, In the midst of everything that has been happening in this season of the world race I haven’t always thought that way! I have actually had times of feeling very scared, worried, doubtful, discouraged, stressed, overwhelmed, and frustrated.
Despite feeling those feelings though, God was with me no matter what! God has showed me that I am allowed to feel those feeling BUT he doesn’t want me to be consumed but them! He wants me to be consumed with the abundance of beautiful things he has so freely given me, like Love, Joy, Faith, Peace, and Trust!
So. what does it mean to me that I am going to go from
Glory to Glory?
after pondering it, and pondering this season of life that I am in, I believe wholeheartedly that it means that no matter what happens, no matter what feelings try to take over, no matter what mistakes I might make, no matter if I fall short, God is ALWAYS going to show up and he is not just gonna show up but he is going to show up in such big ways!!!
He is going to continue to show me that all the faith that I have been having and continue to have despite the hurdles, struggles and battles I have been facing is
MORE than worth it!
As I get ready to embark to the next step of this world race journey and head to Launch, I am holding on tight to the words Glory to Glory!
I am choosing to fight any battle that comes my way, remembering that God has a great and wonderful plan and that the faith and trust t that he has entrusted to me is not only for me but its also to encourage others, thats YOU!
I encourage you to think about what Glory to Glory may mean for you in this season!
Philipians 3:14
I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
