Stop Waiting

Stop needing permission and stop needing approval. Instead, start acting from the convictions God has placed on your heart. Stop worrying so much about what other people might think. Start living with courage, knowing that your purpose comes from Him and not from the opinions of others. Stop waiting for everything to be perfect. Start making faithful use of what God has already entrusted to you, right here, right now. Let yourself be driven forward by the dreams He has planted within you. Fear may whisper and doubt may rise, but God’s Spirit gives you power, love, and a sound mind to keep moving forward. Let go of your need to control those around you. Instead, discover the freedom and strength that come from surrendering control to God and disciplining yourself to walk in His ways. Live intentionally. Live authentically. Live this day and every day with the excellence you were created for, as an offering back to Him.
