ay Nineteen (1/25/18): Seasons of Preparation
Although you have a God-given assignment, you were not necessarily born qualified to fulfill that assignment. Your dream and your assignment are from God, yes, but it will take some work on your part to prepare for it. Long hours, long days, and often many long years will be used in your life to prepare you to be the best you can be in your assignment. Discovering God’s will for your life is a wonderful joy, but often you won’t be able to see that vision come to its completion until much later down the road.
