Have you ever found yourself waiting on God’s appointed time to begin the assignment He’s placed on your life?
Possibly He’s shared with you a vision or placed in your night slumber a beautiful dream.
It’s at that moment you feel honored and appreciated that He would assign you with such gracious assignment. You know what He has placed in your heart is out of your league and in order to complete it you need to trust Him wholeheartedly.
Given such powerful vision from Almighty Himself ,you start off strong, however you began to back up when pressure comes your way.
Can you relate? I know I can. Flash back three years ago to my senior year in college and what’s stated above describes my reaction to God’s calling in my life to the T.
“People of God are in a very dark state,” are the exact words God spoke to me one night during my senior year in college after hearing a group of girls chatting outside of my dorm. One of the girls made the statement “We’ve got to stop sinning.” Her friend’s response was, “But I like it.”
Immediately when I heard the friend’s response I was taken aback. “What does she mean she likes sin?” I thought to myself. However I was reminded shortly after that I hadn’t always been righteous and holy myself. To be honest, the week before I had rededicated my life to Christ, so I had no room to judge.
From that moment on I knew God had given me an assignment and it was my job to gear young adults and milliennials to Christ. In January 2016 Christians in College was established which begin my journey to REFRESH.
During that time in my life, I was so amped-up that God had chosen me to minister to His people. However, I was not aware of the trials and tribulations that would follow after fully surrendering myself to Him and taken on the challenge to complete the task.
Until this day I continue to ask God for strength to carry out the mission He’s assigned me. Although my flesh wants to give up and go back to the way things were once before, I am now aware that God knows best.
Final thoughts
So, beautiful people if you believe God has assigned you with a great work to complete I want you to know your time to get started is NOW! Whether that be starting a blog, working on a book or ministering to a friend, our Father is waiting on US to move. You see, He’s already paid the price by sacrificing His son Jesus. In fact, He’s already completed OUR TASK for us believe it or not. All we have to do to see Him manifest and move in our lives is take action. It’s time we let go of our feelings of fear, thoughts of worry and simply walk by faith.
Yes, it’s easier said than done (trust me I know😉 ), but it is not impossible. My beautiful people comment below what you believe God has assigned you to do this season. Since this topic is very dear to my heart I am willing to touch and agree with you in prayer.
Hey! Thanks for sharing. My prayers are continuously with you. God has even GREATER works in-store! Keep your head-up and know that He’s got you 😉
I still feel lost, I’m not sure what it is I’m to do exactly. I do know that I must take a step towards something right now. My church has actually given me the chance to be a greeter and I’m going to step forward and do it. Only then will I know what to do with my life. Or at least have an idea. Thanks Erica for sending me this article. I am truly grateful!
