Remembering Those Full Circle Moments
Have you ever worked diligently for a goal and after persisting through great resistance reached a victorious moment? A full circle moment.
You are waiting for the next big thing, a promotion, a pay raise, a new opportunity. It could be anything. You’ve dreamt about it, prayed for it and worked toward achieving it.
Despite your best efforts your dream seems no closer than it did before.
So what do you do? Complain?
Those feelings are good at first but instantly vanish.
Do you work harder at obtaining that elusive goal?
Sure. But then it becomes even more frustrating when that moment hasn’t arrived.
Do you switch goals or do you continue building on that future goal?
Or do you decide some dreams are God given and worth the wait?
One thing is guaranteed to help while you trust God to bring about his will for you.
Remember those full circle moments.
Some of my greatest breakthrough victories have come through my writing experiences.
But the most poignant have been with my family.
As a SAHM I remember sitting in an empty bedroom praying for our 3rd child after her sisters went to bed.
As newly marrieds our doctor had pronounced us infertile. You probably will never have a baby he had said. He was wrong.
Within the next several years I gave birth to two perfect baby girls. But there was a strong sense baby number three would soon arrive.
‘Soon’ came nine years later after a molar pregnancy and treatment for endometriosis.
While our little family waited I intentionally remembered other full circle moments God brought us to.
In fact, my husband and I were reminded recently of one of these mountain top moments while watching our former pastor teach on his show “Deep Waters.” You’ll have to watch the program here to find out what it was.
Like a refreshing rain our third precious baby daughter entered the world.
She came at the perfect time at 3:00 A.M. on a Saturday morning. Fearfully and wonderfully created. Psalm 139.
What goal are you waiting to fulfill as you read this post? Do all that you know how to do, remember all that he has done in the past and leave it in God’s hands.
Share in the comments one of the things he has done in your life. So we can praise him with you.
“The Lord has done great things for us; we are glad! ”
