Journey (1)

jer 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

In our journey in life, there is a necessity to learn from the mistakes of others. Don't wait for experience to be your best teacher. Those who are wise learn from experience...Those who are wiser learn from Example...Those who are the wisest learn from the Holy Ghost.
How would you describe this; After Jesus spent 30 years preparing Himself plus the extra 3 years preaching, He only won 12 members after which it remaned 11. Would you say it's a success or a failure?. Just beacause somethings works doesn't mean that God made it work. most things work to the plan of the devil and he takes delight in them. If you face your future with fear, you would definitely fail.
As a child of God everything is yours, you therefore become an employer of labour and everything becomes your labourer. Rom 8:38-39 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
The difference between the devil and you, is that, the devil sends fear to you 1st and you don't send fear back to him. Your future is an accident of your confessions and meditations.
