Eyes on the Prize

So many times we can be in a place in our lives where we think that this is it. I'm finished, I'm done. Game over.

And we forget who we are because this lie is robbing us of the life that we have been called to live, the race that we are supposed to run.

I had one of these times pretty recently, I've moved to South Africa and so I'm faaarrr away from home. So as you can imagine... yes, it's pretty difficult.

Anywho, this one day I was really struggling, it was hot and I was exhausted, my body was sore from all the work that we had been doing, I was missing home, the people I was working with were grating on my nerves without them even realising it, and in that moment. I felt like giving up. I felt completely worthless and exhausted. Yet, through those feelings, I felt God's presence ( almost like He was giving me a physical hug ) and I was reminded that I have been chosen, chosen before the earth's foundations were formed. I was chosen before creation began, I am chosen.

This was so cool let me tell you because as this revelation hit me, the power that I thought I did not have suddenly became available to me, the strength I thought that I had lost was now there. I could continue doing what I had been called to do.

I know that sometimes when it feels like the whole world is on our shoulders, and by the term 'world' it could mean anything - friends, exams, family troubles, relationships etc, anywho I'm sure you get what I mean. When it feels like the world is on our shoulders we forget the One who created the world, the One who was supposed to take this on and let us not do it by ourselves, and shoot cakes. It can be difficult when we forget that.

We were not created for taking on things that we are not supposed to take on, because that's not our position. Our position is to just be soaking up all the love and letting God take the BIG role in our lives, we just need to chill with our eyes on Jesus. Our eyes on the prize.

I hope this blog update was somehow entertaining and interesting to you. This is legit what happened to me a few weeks ago and I thought I should share it. I hope you enjoy it :)

Lots of Love,

Caity.
