God Is at WorkPrøve

God created us to be ourselves, but He did not create us to prove ourselves. He already knows our worth, and the great things that He has set for us to accomplish. God has given us everything we need to live fulfilling lives. We have nothing to prove because God already believes in us. He knows what lies within our hearts, and He knows that we are capable of great things, because it was He who designed us to do so. Yet, during the darkest moments of our lives, our visions can get cloudy. We can view our circumstances, our peers and loved ones, and even ourselves in a negative light. It’s hard to stay focused on the greatness that God has planned for us when we don’t feel it ourselves, but understand this: God sees the bigger picture, we just see what’s in front of us. God knows everything, but the question is, can you trust Him without knowing or seeing? Your future has no room for your past. We cannot dwell on our past failures, circumstances, or setbacks. God is at work within you and around you. He is changing and transforming your mind, altering your perspectives in order to prepare you for the long road ahead. Just as you wouldn’t plan a week-long road trip without making sure you have everything you need, God is not expecting us to just wing it. He has a detailed plan for us, and He wants to first prepare us before we set off on this path. Will we answer Him? Will we follow His will even when our vision starts to get cloudy? Will we push forward when our road is uneven and uncertain? He is at work in every moment, throughout every hardship, and every difficulty. He believes in you more than you may believe in yourself, and He is ALWAYS available. You are irreplaceable, perfectly equipped, and incredibly necessary to the work God has planned for you. Where you come from is not who you are. You are who God says you are.
