Meditate On
How precious is Your steadfast love, O God! The children
of men take refuge and put their trust under the shadow of Your wings.
Psalm 36:7, AMP
Never
Too Mature To Pursue Your Dreams
Divorced. Mature. Displaced. Most people would have been
discouraged by these official terms to describe their status in society, but
not a precious lady who wrote to me sharing her testimony. She didn’t let how
others saw her stop her from pursuing her dreams—she applied for a university
education in her latter years. What caused her to rise above those voices of
defeat? What caused her to be success-minded?
She shared with me that through reading my devotionals on
God’s grace and Jesus’ finished work, she became infused with faith and
boldness to pursue her dreams no matter what limits others put on her. Instead
of seeing herself divorced, old and displaced, she said, “I see myself as God
says I am—His beloved. Because I am His beloved, I’m trusting Abba for abundant
provision.” She saw Almighty God backing up her dreams and giving her a great
future despite her age.
Beloved, immerse yourself in the truth of God’s unmerited
favor toward you today. Be conscious every day that you are His beloved—and
pursue your dreams with boldness and hope!
