Try Again

So let's not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time, we will reap a harvest of blessings if we don't give up. – Galatians 6:9 (NLT)

Ever heard the term, "if at first, you don't succeed, try- try again? Well, growing up, I heard that term plenty of times. I had the kind of mother that pushed you and encouraged you no matter what. If I wanted to do something, she would tell me to try. If I tried and failed, she would console me and tell me to try again. She refused to let me settle or give up. 

 It wasn't until a few years ago that I realized that I always tried, but the "try again" part was what I failed to do. Can you relate? Many times in life, I was unable to accomplish the things that were in my heart to do because fear outweighed my passion, or the fear of failing again crippled me.  I'm pretty sure that many of you have experienced the same thing. 

Philippians 4:13 states, "For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength." So I encourage every one of you to find that one, two, or even three things that you gave up on doing because you allowed fear to overwhelm you... and try it again! As long as the strength from Christ is in your heart, you can do almost anything! Jesus will make all the right things possible! 

So, pick that sewing machine back up, and become the designer you want to be! Sharpen that pencil and write the book. The time is now to dream again and allow your passion to be that very thing that catapults you into this next season of winning. After all, what have you got to lose? 

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and JUMP! Some incredible things are waiting for you if you don’t give up!

Prayer: 

My Father, My Lord- I thank you for igniting the passion on the inside of me to do what you have called me to do. Getting here was tough, but here I am, open and ready to follow your instructions. I will not be fearful, but I will be thankful that you have put me in this place of serenity and solitude, ready to move towards my destiny In Jesus' name, Amen.
