Are you measuring or comparing your success in life, business and ministry to the standards of achievement this world has placed on you?  Remember that comparison is not the tool we should use when examining the reality of where we find ourselves.  Rather, “Find Joy In The Journey” and be glad when others succeed even those who do not follow Jesus.

  It can be hard to understand that God’s ways are not ours, and that He is truly at work on us everyday.  I believe that the breakthrough we so desperately long for comes when we understand this;

“The growth, maturity and wisdom we desire from God only happens through the pain and frustration of waiting”.

-Dan Chavez

  Maybe our default desire to avoid and escape the process God is taking us through is really a barrier in allowing us to “Find Joy In The Journey.”

  Don’t miss out on the process of true advancement by comparing the place you find yourself to where the world says you should be.  Realize that your success and accomplishment is happening IN THE NOW if you can just cease to resist and allow yourself to “Find Joy In The Journey.”  Know that God will act on your behalf the moment you accept His method of taking you higher.

  So I ask you, are waiting patiently on God or are you jumping the gun on the process He is taking you through to reach the next level in your walk with Him?

I pray that today you will take the opportunity to “Find Joy In The Journey.”

  Be patient and trust the LORD. Don’t let it bother you when all goes well for those who do sinful things. Psalm 37:7
