Setbacks

It has not been a good week.
We've had a major setback in our house building process, and have had
to re-evaluate who we want to work with.
My first reaction was to settle and keep going.
And then I realized how wrong that was.
That's not what God wants for us.
He wants the best.
He will bring the best.
It may take longer than we'd hoped, and cost more, but we're willing to sacrifice what we've already got in order to get
something better.

Is that your outlook on life?
Do you settle for mediocrity, even though you know there's more?
I've done it.
Spiritually speaking, it's the worst trap to fall into.
And so easy to get stuck there.

Don't settle.
Go hard after God.
Seek Him and His plan for your life.
He won't disappoint you!

'The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.

Those who know your name will trust in you,
for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you.'
Psalm 9:9-10
