Realizing Your Vision
Evangelist Rachel Thomas
What is your personal
vision? Is there a God-
inspired dream burning in
your hear?
Don't give up. Let God
have His way with you.
Keep your eyes on the King,
receive His vision for the
city, give Him your life and
your gifts, and begin to take
steps of obedience.
None of us understand
the end from the beginning.
All we know is that He is
"the author and finisher of
our faith" (Heb. 12:2).
God's ways are too mar
velous for us. I understand
more than I am able to put in
a lot of books, but what I do
understand is tiny.
I live on the edge of
wonders beyond my capacity
to comprehend.
The more my curiosity
is satisfied, the more the
wonder of knowing the more
the wonder of knowing God
increases.
God is the most inter
esting person in the universe-
and the most beautiful. Jesus
came to reveal the Father, to
atone for us and to teach us
how to live.
He also came to destroy
the works of the devil and He
has COMMISSIONED US
to do likewise.
In Eccl. 9:14-15- "There
was a little city with few men
in it, and a great king came
against it, besieged it, and
built great snares around it.
Now there was found in it a
poor wise man and he by his
wisdom, delivered the city."
That wise man could be
you. Be determined in your
mind to follow Jesus. He has
graced me with a stubborn
faith that contends for the
