Gift of Hope & A Future

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you "declares the Lord"  "Plans to prosper you and not harm you, Plans to give you hope and a future"

The word of God also tells us to have a vision. He says "Without a vision my people perish" What's  your Vision,or Dream in life?  Have you prayed about it?  Everyone has one. Have you laid it aside thinking it wont work? Or feel you arent good enough?  Or are you one who has given up?  If it's God inspired you must work hard helping it come to pass or it or it will never happen. Everything we hope and pray for is God inspired.

The greatest man who searched without giving up compiling scientific notes and theorys and experiments till he finaly developted the vacine that saved countless millions saving from a crippling disease called Polio. People may remember the first car made by Mr. Ford. Travel would not be the same if it wasn't for Orvile and his brother who shaped the very first simple air plane which has developed into the jets we travel every day by the millions. There are so many believers who have spent the time in prayer for the breakthroughs in many needful areas for the betterment of our society.
These wonderfull blessings giftings and talents are all given to us by Gods greater and higher divine plan for us all.

 Looking at the abundance of trees we see some are bent in certain ways. Some branches may be long and low or they may have unusual twists and turn in its growth pattern. This is much like we are created. God built in us the ability for whatever we need to do in our life. One kind of tree can withstand great storms, While others made to house thousands of birds and small creatures. Some strong as an Oak. Some shorter with thick leafy branches reaching outward as a shady shelter from unbearable heat. Yet some producing nourishing fruit that will sustain and give life to those who eat of it.

 When I was about 14 years old I worked part time ( two hours every evening) in a nursing home that happened to be right next door to our home in the country.I didn't plan this for my life but it just fell into place. I had compassion for these folks and enjoyed  Listening and taking time and patience to help wherever I was needed.   loving on them was a pleasure for me.  Although most of my teen age friends thought it was a terrible place to work.  I on the other hand I found it to be a place where I felt needed and could release my mercy and compassion to those weak and needing love.

 Later on in my life I became a Hair Stylist and because of my creative artistic abilities became very sucessfull and owned 3 Salons. Again Gods plan was at work as I found it very natural to help women feel beautiful about themselves inside and out . Counseling and sharing Gods Love and Salvation for their life became very easy as many were touched and changed by feeling comfortable and relaxed enough to ask question about Jesus without any embarasment.

Looking back I can see how Gods hand was upon me.  Always thinking I alone was in the drivers seat in my life when it was Him leading and guiding me all along.

Has God been training you ?  Of coarse He has!  Ask God to place the desire in your heart to be used for His Glory!!  If you have prayed for this "somthing" within you and know it's of God,  Ask Him to take hold of your heart to mold  your thoughts and dreams on His Potters wheel!  for HIS Glory!!.  This is His desire for your life that you let His hands " lead"  "guide" and "mold" your life for Him.    

God has known and loved you from the very second of your conception.  !! 
"I know the plans I have for you says the Lord "Of good and not evil" to prosper you and not harm you. Plans to give you a HOPE and a FUTURE!!  Says the Lord!  

He knew the day you were concieved and just how He would train you up and use your life for His Glory!!  And He is still working in You today!!

Your Divine Joy and happiness will be completed when you become just what God created for you to be for Him!   You will   "only then",  feel "complete" and "whole"  in Him!!

Find your Dream and Vision  of your heart and life and keep it in "front" of you continually and Most important...Pray Believing and Dont let  GO of it by giving up !!!  The lord is with you to help and Go with you every step of the way!   He  "WILL"  do it as you Believe and Trust in  HIM! and  HIM! alone!
