God Is Committed to Your Future

 "I have come that you may have life and have it more abundantly." - John 10:10


I'd like to share one of my favorite excerpts from the book "God is Bigger than Your Biggest Problems" by Bo Sanchez. Be blessed!


Imagine a kite flying high up in the sky.

You are the kite. God is the boy flying that kite. The string between the boy and the kite is your relationship with God.

But there are kites that feel that the string is holding them back.

So the kite says, "I want to fly higher. I can do so if this string  isn't here."

So they cut the string. They want to live their lives on their terms. Their theme song is Frank Sinatra's "I Did It My Way."

When they cut the string, they soar even higher into the sky. And the kite feels wonderful. But in due time, the kite will crashing down and be destroyed to bits.

Don't cut the string. Remain in your relationship with God.

In other words, allow Him to love you.

However, we're not just talking about friendship with God. Leadership is friendship, yes, but it's more than friendship. Aside from building a relationship, a leader casts a vision -- a dream.

Like the boy flying the kite, God has a vision for your life: for you to fly high up in the sky -- as high as you can possibly fly.

God has a vision for your life. It's found in John 10:10 -- "I have come that you may have life and have it more abundantly."

Here's what I found out: like any great leader, God is totally committed to this vision for your life.


Live in gratitude.
