I think one of the greatest lies we can believe is, “It’s too late!” At some time in our life, we feel we’ve missed our chance or messed up a opportunity. Many believe they’ve been disqualified from a great future, that their best days are behind them.
If you feel like you’ve missed your chance for that opportunity, you have a great life that has passed you by. Know that God is on your side. It’s never too late.
While God himself never changes, He is a God of change. He’s always doing something new and working behind the scenes in our lives who bring about new beginnings. Where we see failure, God sees potential or something new. The minute we stumble and come apart, God is already planning our comeback. When we mess up plan A we don’t have to worry because God has a plan B.
In Isaiah 43:19, God says, “Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing now it was spring forth; you will not be aware of it. I won’t even put a road in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.”
If this was true, would you go back to school and earn your degree? Would you reconcile with an old friend or attempt to make up for past mistakes? Would you follow your passion in life or try to fulfill your dreams!
Whatever it may be, God want you to know that it’s never too late to begin again and have a great life. He is on your side and put a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.
But we have to cooperate with God’s plan, we must stay determined. One thing I’ve learned in life when you feel discouraged, whenever doubt, or criticize you even when your dreams seem like they just never happen, that’s when we need to keep moving forward.
Have you ever felt a calling on your life and people discouraged you to do what you know is in your heart. You may lose some friends, and even your family members will turn their backs on you. But you know you were called to do a certain job, and go certain places, And even talk to strangers.
Sometimes my family says I embarrass them because go up to strangers and start talking to them about what their feeling. If people are struggling I just know it. I am up to help someone every way I can. Life can be hard, I’ve been through some tough times where I have had to struggle alone. No one should have to be alone with that. It seems like when your struggling all your friends and maybe even family seem to you desert you.
I know that God has spoken to my heart, and I know that I have a bit of empathy and compassion to help others, and teach God‘s word if they will listen. I certainly would not be fulfilling God’s call my life now, and I would be miserable if I couldn’t help people with the Colin I have on my life.
Satan, Only wants to quit and give up. He continually lies to us and tells us things like, who do you think you are? That’s never going to happen. Do you really believe God spoke to you you’re going to do that?
How many times were you tempted to quit when a breakthrough is right around the corner. But if you just keep moving forward and remain steadfast and refuse to give up, you will reach your goal and walking God’s plan for your life.
Yes, there would be disappointments or setbacks to endure. But one thing I do know, God loves you, He sees you, and He has a plan to help you begin again. Because he is a God of fresh starts, new beginnings and great finishes.
He is the One who makes all things new – 2 Corinthians 5:17
