How to Stop Striving for Your Purpose
Waiting on God is one of the most important things we will ever learn to do. Waiting well leads us to spiritual maturity, develops our reliance on God, builds faith, and infuses us with courage. And waiting on God will take us further than we could ever take ourselves on our own. So what stops us from waiting? Oftentimes, it’s impatience and selfish ambition. On the surface, we may look like we’re on track - fueled by Godly ambition - but if we’re honest with ourselves, the motivation in our hearts has gone a bit sideways. This episode will empower you to trust God so deeply with your future that you develop the discipline to wait on him to open the doors to your destiny rather than striving for it in your own strength.
Let Go Of What Makes You Weary in the Wait
Your purpose is something that draws you. It’s like no matter what you do, you can’t get away from it. It’s something God is always at work preparing you for—whether you see it in the moment or not. Having to wait on God for the vision, direction, and strategies you need to go forward into your destiny isn’t anything to get frustrated over. In fact, when we let go of our impatience and our own ideas about what should happen, we’ll actually go from feeling weary and frustrated to uplifted and energized.
