Achieved and receiving

We all have to prepare for things in life, or we should do so. In the bible it talks about no one builds a house without counting the cost. Thus, preparing is part of counting the cost. It allows for you to sustain the place you move into, once you get there. Without preparation, nothing quite work well. Now of the preparation are done for us but see we all have our part to play – leaving our legacy. So, we cannot just enjoy the fruits of others labor without laboring for the next generation. See too many times in modern day, we do not want to work for what we will not reap from before we leave. However, we have no problems living the life of Riley because of someone else work…Someone else tears….Someone else doing without…Someone else mistreatment…See, we too, not just this generation of millennials, feel we are entitled to do so. We have not realize the desired outcome, we seek can only be realized, when we are ready to get out of the boat, and walk on the water. Yet, this cannot be done because we desire the easy route, the familiar ways, and the faith with proof. But you see, no one ever accomplishes, achieves anything staying within our comfort zone. Remaining in the traditional way, do not get me wrong traditions are not bad in and of themselves, but the failure to understand the meaning of them is the problem. We do because they said we should, If we learn the reasond for traditions we are doing, many would soon fade out of existence because the need they is no longer, and it our time to create new. We need to begin to seek the truth and the authentic, and then we can see prosperity in a new way. We must understand there is a process to achieving and receiving, which requires moving into the uncomfortable. Moving outside our comfort zone for many of us is painful, mentally, emotionally, and psychological…Isaiah 66:7-9 - "A woman does not give birth before she feels the pain; she does not give birth to a son before the pain starts. No one has ever heard of that happening; no one has ever seen that happen. In the same way no one ever saw a country begin in one day; no one has ever heard of a new nation beginning in one moment. But Jerusalem will give birth to her children just as soon as she feels the birth pains. In the same way I will not cause pain without allowing something new to be born," says the LORD."If I cause you the pain, I will not stop you from giving birth to your new nation," says your God (NCV) Neither will God allow for us to go through without receiving a blessing, the bounty from our pain. Because God math is different than ours, He subtracts to add, and divides to multiply. If you ever have to give up to get something, then this resonates with a clarity that makes you know your life, and His way a little more clearly…Then process of achieving and receiving is no longer a mystery, but a heavenly revelations.
