Patience During Desperate Times
Mood:  on fire
Topic: You Are Not Alone
What do I have to say that others want to hear?  My mind was really boggled at the mere thought of anyone paying me to write.  That will never happen. These were lies the devil had spoken to my mind, but God had other plans for me (Jeremiah 29:11). Through all of my uncertainties and doubts of becoming a published author, writer and speaker, I discovered the key of patience for unlocking God's plan for my own life.

Patience taught me how to pray and wait on God's timing for His plans and purposes to unfold and manifest where writing and speaking were concerned. Patience + preparation = manifestation. 

When we go through the fiery furnace of afflictions (notice I said through because we will make it to the other side) God is with us.  We will not be consumed by the fire or will it singed a single hair on our head.  This is a testing of our faith to see if we believe God's promises. Does not the Word say in Romans 5:3, "...tribulation works patience...?" James 1: 3-4 paraphrased, that the trying of our faith works patience. But we should let patience have her perfect work that we become perfect (mature) and entire (whole) and wanting nothing (no lack)...and that's really good news.

During your desperate times, use the key of patience to unlock every door and possess every blessing and promotion that God has inscribed with your name.
