A test of faith.
Two and a half years is equivalent to:
30 months
130,357 weeks
912.5 days
21,900 hours
1,314,000 minutes
78,840,000 seconds
Now let that settle in for a bit.
Think of the endless possibilities of what could be accomplished during this period of time. Studying towards a college degree or a specialized certification. Waiting patiently for your little one to grow out of their ‘terrible 2 stage’, which may end up staying in place until their adult years. Oh my! Celebrating a special life event such as a wedding, anniversary, retirement or taking the time in remembrance of someone close to you.
So, turn your thoughts to the COMPLETE opposite. An event that changed your entire lifestyle for 2.5 years, that you had no control over. You made every attempt to change the outcome or process to no avail. There wasn’t any source of steady income flowing into the household. You were the only resource for a family of four.
During this transition period, you never had a pity party. You did not curse God. Your walk with God became deeper and deeper. You became innovative with the talents God has blessed you with. Your ministry of the gospel took you beyond the borders of the United States to pour out God’s word on others. Your praise never faltered, it became louder! Even with every door for a different opportunity remained closed, you kept pressing forward. When man said no, God said, instead and you remained steady. You kept your prayer circle small with those you can trust, who asked for nothing in return.
Now literally 2.5 years later, you were placed in the right place at the right time and God blessed you with an opportunity beyond imagination! You have been aligned in a role to be a blessing to so many. You kept the faith and the word in your heart. Truly blessed and highly favored! I thank you for being an example to me as a powerful woman of God. I thank you for being an example of strong faith. I thank you for being a prayer and praising woman! I thank you for allowing me to be in your small circle of trust!
As I continue to pray for your continued success with this new opportunity, Be Kept!
