When lack shows up, most of us want to run.
We don't understand the season. We don't understand the delay. We don't understand why things aren't happening the way we thought they would. So we panic, we strive, or we flee.
But faith doesn't run at the first sign of lack.
Jesus, facing the greatest trial of His life, prayed, "Nevertheless, not My will, but Yours be done."
That's the posture of a believer.
There are seasons where God allows us to feel the gap between where we are and where we're believing Him to take us. Not to punish us, but to teach us dependence. To teach us trust. To remind us that our source has never been our circumstances, it's always been Him.
Don't flee when you encounter lack.
Mind the gap.
Pay attention to what God is teaching you in the waiting. Pay attention to how He's shaping your character, strengthening your faith, and drawing you closer to Him.
Because sometimes the greatest growth doesn't happen in abundance. It happens in the space where we learn to trust God when we don't have all the answers.
Stay planted.
Stay faithful.
Stay surrendered.
And keep saying, "Nevertheless, not my will, but Yours be done." πβ€οΈ
