New Year, new vision (2)
'For the vision ... will surely come ...' Habakkuk 2:3
Remember yesterday and all that looking into the future with a special type of eyesight, well there's more! What kind of secret-mission has God planted in your heart? If you're not sure, then ask him: 'Form your purpose by asking for counsel, then carry it out using all the help you can get' (Proverbs 20:18 TM).
If you want to know why you're here on this sphere, ask him. God has all your answers. God has all your purposes. God has all your dreams. Plus, here's the 'win-win' situation, not only will He give you wild dreams to chase, He'll give you all you need to fulfil them. Yes, there'll be set-backs and hurdles, it won't all be plain-sailing. (Hey, even Rocky has to do the hard graft of running up all those steps to his theme tune, before he gets his world title, so why should you get off lightly?) But if you stick it out, with God's help, you'll change history.
Winston Churchill did it: when it looked like the war was lost, Britain's leader looked over the mountain, beyond the now and into the future, rallying his nation with these words, 'Never give up! Never give up! Never, never, never, give up!' Now there was a man of vision, a man of purpose, certain of his impending victory despite the overwhelming odds. Whatever righteous cause God entrusts to you, never, never, never give up!
