Momentum

Gradually building, taking and making small steps towards a goal, persistently purposeful living all takes some effort beyond what I thought I currently possessed. My thoughts were accurate.

The version of myself five or ten ago would not have been able to accomplish what I’ve done. I hadn’t grown sufficiently enough to get these tasks completed. I wasn’t living with purpose. I was adrift, tethered to mediocrity, living without vision, focus, and purpose. Most importantly, my faith in Him wasn’t as strong.

Today, and for the last few years, my faith, my belief in Him, and what possible through Him, has grown to a point of “anything is possible” and I can get “all accomplished through Him.” By living and acting as His humble and faithful servant, I’ve grown to this stage of development and more growth and opportunities are forthcoming.

So, although I’m frustrated at most times with the speed at which things are being completed, and everything’s taking much longer than I’d anticipated, I will continue to generate momentum, complete tasks by taking small steps and eventually my journey will be completed. Then I can rest eternally with Him, knowing I served well.

Today, Tuesday, February, 18, 2020, I am grateful that:

Ronnie made it to Cebu safely. I enjoy her companionship, her company offers comfort and a sense of serenity. It’s a great feeling to enjoy spending time with someone who enjoys spending time with me as well.

Even the smallest tasks completed create momentum. I have a history of not acknowledging the small things, as if they are insignificant or irrelevant. What I’ve learned living here is that no matter the task, its completion is needed. No matter the puzzle piece, without it, the puzzle can’t be completed.

I can finally see how forming a publication company and acquiring the rights to authors’ work can generate an income and be beneficial. During a conversation with Beverly yesterday it occurred to me and actually made sense.

So with a vision of the completed puzzle clearly set in my mind, I’ll move forward and continue to place pieces in their proper places. Big or small, each is vital.

Is your vision clear?

Are you placing the pieces correctly?

Big or small, do you acknowledge or celebrate when tasks are accomplished?

How will you exercise your “faith muscle” today?
