Hebrew 12:22 “Looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Oftentimes our shortsightedness leads us in the opposite direction, and persistence to continue will lead us into wildernesses, and bring us to the places where we lose our blessings. But if we ask right questions to ourselves and pray for wisdom to receive answer from inside ourselves and understand then to be aligned with His will and purpose, strength to change ourselves and courage to follow; we will overcome all of our challenges, living by faith not by sight and receive the joy out of our suffering and troubles set before us enduring our cross to show our faith to receive eternal blessings ahead of us.
Prayer: Dear Lord Heavenly Father mighty wonderful God, the Lord, lead me to listen to what you have made me, align my thinking with your purpose and strengthen me to live this life each and every day bearing my cross and follow Jesus so I may receive what ahead of me, help me to live by faith in you not trusting myself instead aligning all I have to your will and plan. In Jesus’s Holy Name, I pray Amen.
Have a blessed day!
