Hello lovely people, hope your enjoying your day 27 of the journal challenge I pray you've all got something out of this time of writing your vision.
This lovely lady in the photo below is not only a close friend and sister in Christ but she is my leader and mentor, I have learnt so much from her and she has been a true blessing in my life full of joy and great advice. Ruth is a qualified lawyer and personal trainer/strength specialist and teaching music as well. I sat down with her a little while ago to ask some questions about writing your vision and the importance of it and how it's effected not just her life but her walk with God.
This was her response ~
What is journaling to you?
Someone writing down their feelings, writing down their aspirations and dreams and visions and what God has told you.
What has the lord done in your life because of writing your vision?
He's brought some of things to pass and he's given me faith and patience to believe and wait for the other dreams and visions that are yet to come to pass.
What would you say to someone who's been disappointed about dreams not coming to pass and have stopped writing their dreams and visions?
Most people fail not because they are failures, but because they fail to try, the Bible says, a righteous man falls, but he gets up again. Some people have given up even before they start trying, because they are afraid to fail. Research shows that most successful people try and fail, they try again and fail again, but they keep trying until one day they succee. An example would be Colonel Sanders (KFC), he knocked on countless of doors to sell his fried chicken recipe, but was knocked back, countless times. It was not until he turned 65, that someone brought his recipe. Today, we find KFC everywhere in the world. If Colonel Sanders had given up, we would not have KFC today.
Word of encouragement, our job is to try and if we fail, we try again and again, because if you don't give up on God, he won't give up on you.
