Have you ever felt discouraged because of a certain amount of time that is between where you are and where you want to be…?
How to you get through it? By NOT trying to figure out how you are going to do that… Don’t try and figure out how you are going to get through this week, month or maybe this season – take it day by day and let each day be your focus. God gives us new strength and grace each day, He gives us our daily bread, not our weekly bread.
He will provide the strength for each new day, for each battle - each day we have to get up for work, each day we have to wait for someone or something… for the breakthrough.
For example, being in a long distance relationship. Thinking about the months or weeks that lie ahead before you get to see each other will leave you feeling discouraged and hopeless. But taking one day at a time, embracing one day at a time, making the most of each day, is what gets you through it. Thinking about the time and focusing on that, will leave you feeling demotivated and depressed.
This season has a reason and it definitely has potential for growing and learning. Each season has its pros and cons – although we don’t always want to see the pros in our season and situation. God uses each season for a specific purpose, so lets fulfill that purpose so that we will be ready for the next one… Let’s fulfill purpose ONE day at a time.
♥ Living a life of faith
