Right now, you might not be where you should be in pursuit of that vision,
you probably aren’t even close but you must refuse to sit or stand still. Because
each step takes you closer to your destination.
While you keep moving remember to:
Keep cultivating: Your journey is
like a farmland. If you leave it, it’ll become fallow but only weeds will make
use of that fertility to grow to become a bush.
Have a picture: If you can paint,
paint a picture of that vision. Else, write it down as instructed in Habakkuk
2:2. A clear definition will give you the answer to every question along the
way.
Give all: “If you think
fulfilling a vision is easy, check the price tag! Like child birth. It’s hard,
it’s lonely, it’s sleepless, it’s appetite changing and it’s schedule altering.
It involves pain and leaves stretch marks and could cost you, your life. Esther’s
vision meant putting her life on the line and saying “if I perish, I perish” (Esther
4:16). Did she perish? No! But she was willing to. So did Martin Luther King.
Stop listening to others: when your vision is
from God, be sure, many won’t understand it. Well, it was given to you not
them. Hence, stop procrastinating, making excuses, feeling sorry for yourself,
talking yourself down and being intimidated by those who say you don’t have
what it takes. Listen to God! For He made available everything you need to get
to where you need to go Ephesians 3:20.
Protect it: Vision isn’t for
the faint hearted. It can't be downsize when the going gets tough so, you must be
willing to protect it, to give up on what might be harmful to it (relationships,
habits, places, priorities etc.) Like the pregnant woman who have to stop
eating certain food and drinking to keep and deliver safely the baby she’s carrying
inside her.
Be nice: Be nice to everyone
that comes your way. Do not sum the worth of an individual base on his/her
appearance and treat them thus. Because that old tatted looking person might
understand your journey than the flashy looking individual that’ll probably
help you waste your time.
Never stop praying: Prayer is what will make you see each ray on the way.
Have fruits bearing day and week and yes, don’t forget I do appreciate
your time here and love you. Many blessings!
Cheers!
