Better than You Think It Is

"Success doesn't feel like you think it will," said Bishop Jakes in one of his messages on Living your Purpose.

He says we seldom know when we are in the middle of our own harvest.

"Your life is better than you think it is. Your ministry is better than you think it is. Your marriage is better than you think it is. Your man is better than you think he is. Your kids are better than you think they are....

"But you only know how good things are in retrospect. You only know when you can look back and say, 'Gosh, that's a great kid.'"

Prayer this a.m.: Lord, help me to realize that my best days are NOW. Help me to understand that the Harvest is NOW and that I can't wait because there's no better time than today! Help me to be a better Mom, Employee, Teacher, Follower of Christ, Discipler, Wife, Servant. Help me to rightly divide the Word of Truth and to not get caught up in Religious Thinking that wastes time, energy, and opportunity. I know you're working on me, Lord. Help me to be patient, to realize the process, to understand that I need to be working the Harvest NOW.
