Can you believe that it is already December ?
Sooner or later with just a blink of an eye it is already 2019. Time passes too fast, ain't it ?
From the start of January 2018 to November 2018 has not been an easy journey and i am sure for many of you as well, but when we choose to build our life on a foundation that is His love and set our feet upon the rock, we are able to overcome any challenges or any seasons that we go through because it says in His word that Jesus is the firm foundation. Jesus is the Alpha and Omega. Jesus is the first and last. He reigns over all situations.
This year for me has been a stretchy one where i needed to learn how to put my faith into practice.
There is this story in the Bible where it talks about Gideon. He was going through a very rough and tough season in his life when his faith was shaken and how his faith was weak. He was probably not feeling it therefore he would rather have chosen to give up instead of continuing on.
There were times in Gideon's life where he felt rather discourage but if you read in the bible an Angel appears to Gideon and spoke that the Lord is with you. Isn't that just simply an amazing assurance to know that no matter the seasons that we all go through, The Lord is with each and everyone of us.
In times like these, many of us can take the courage in knowing that Jesus would never leave us nor forsake us. Just like Gideon, God never left Gideon and God always had the answers that you need for whatever that we go through. It is so important to exercise our faith and to not let fear overtake us.
In life, it is so easy peasy to suddenly stop to early even at times when life has gotten really hard for you and you can't seem to find a way out. Don't give up when God says it is not over yet. Keep pushing , keep pressing, keep running the race.
Stepping into a last month of 2018 to me is like stepping into new adventures to paint a new picture for new year of 2019. I don't know what God has in store for me in the days, weeks or even months to come but i am willing to trust the Lord and praise and give thanks and continue to adore Jesus in all seasons of my life that as i end 2018 strong. I am going to rise up high and land strong knowing that i am a conquerer and overcomer in Christ Jesus.
So excited for what my God has in store for 2019 and I do pray that all of you will be able to also end the year 2018 strong.
The best is yet to come!
" So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. ( Isaiah 41:10 )
