Keeping your vision clear

  The Lord has really been impressing upon me the importance of keeping the Vision (your vision!) clear, keeping the job He has given you in front of all the other things going on around you. Its not that the goal/vision has been forgotten, just kinda pushed to the back by the "world around us". The picture I got to best explain this is we have the computer on the screen is bright and there is the whole write up the power point so to speak of what the Lord has given us to do. (Remember write the vision, make it clear Hab.2:2) Then the phone rings, the kids come in from school the dog starts barking, you get the idea. Next thing you know you glance back at the computer and the screen is dim, or the saver has come on. Your power point, vision hasn't gone but it isn't as bright as it once was. What do you do? Simple jiggle the mouse, or in real life pray for the Holy Spirit to lead you back to the place where He is first, that the vision becomes clear again. Remember it's not easy to finish your course. It is easier to fall by the wayside because in yourself, you are inadequate. But you're not alone! That makes all the difference. It's the Anointed One in you Who is going to do the work. It's the Spirit of God Who will bring those impossible things to pass. 

 Philippians 3:12-14

..............., but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. ¹³ Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead,¹⁴ I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. 

Love and Blessings!
