One hundred years from now what will matter most is if you knew God. Did you know Him in such a way that you fell more in love every day? Did you dare to dream and step out in faith to accomplish those dreams? Did you live your life with curiosity, confidence, courage and constancy?
Let’s go deeper: To live with curiosity means that as you live you embrace the unknown. Like Peter, you are not content to stay in the boat; you want to walk on water. In terms of today, you do not only want to dream, you want to live your dreams and walk by Faith however He leads you.
In the same way, when you live with confidence, you walk circumspectly down the path He chose for you and trust in His promises every step of the way even if they do not always make sense.You know that no matter what He will faithfully be with you.
When you live with courage, you are able to cast your fears aside because you can feel His hand in yours. No matter what trials come your way, you are able to keep walking because you can see the end result even if it seems distant at first.
Furthermore, when you live with constancy, you keep your eyes straight ahead by spending time daily with Him. You know that everything is in His hands and that He is more than enough for you.
In essence,
There is no thrill in easy sailing
when the skies are clear and blue
There’s no joy in merely doing things
which anyone can do
But there is some satisfaction
that is sweet to take
when you reach a destination
that you thought you’d never make (Unknown)!!!
