She Connects: Embrace The Vision

by STRONG | Jul 2, 2015 | Faith + Expressions

Vision is so important in this lifetime and it ignites a passion within me when I hear or read something great in reference to vision. Embracing your vision for your life is a good topic to start with and I feel this should be a three part deal; embrace your vision, build your vision, and execute your vision…so without further delay, today’s message is about embracing the vision of your life. (You may really want to check your excuses at the door before continuing).

Your life has purpose. We are created for a reason and our vision can be the driving force between where we go or staying in the same place. I was listening to a sermon by a minister who was blind. He may have had a disability that prevented him from seeing the outside world, but his vision for his life was greater than any ability to see. I may never forget the most powerful words he spoke, primarily the saying, “lack of vision is worse than blindness”. Here is a man who cannot see telling others that if you have no vision for your life, then you are worse off than he will ever be. That was rather powerful to hear.

He went on to mention the feats he was able to accomplish to get him to his purpose. He received a doctorate degree, published a book, and is a motivational speaker that travels the world. People never thought he would finish high school, let alone accomplish what things he’s already done. I mean talk about obliterating the excuses I could ever use after hearing someone overcome the impossible. Certainly, if he wanted to, if any of us wanted to, then we would be able to conjure up an excuse to remain without vision, without drive, without purpose. However, having a ridiculous amount of faith and bright vision, then there is no room for excuses.

Although he has much to be grateful for with the victories he won through Christ, his vision is still brighter than ever and he still moves forward. Vision can do that for your life. Vision says that there is light at the end of every tunnel. Working towards your vision you need to remove excuses and doubts and focus on the brightness up ahead. Vision gives you insight even if your natural sight is obsolete.

If it is your dream, then stop putting it off to the side like it has no meaning. Embrace what you are created to do. It does not always have to be the most comfortable thing, but it is the thing that gives you purpose. You will build your confidence once you embrace what your vision is. The evening may seem dark, but light always proceeds the night. Your situation may look impossible compared to your dream, but weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning (Psalm 30:5). Stick with your vision, it is the hope of a brighter tomorrow. If you have a dream for your life, then embrace your vision. Do not let what looks impossible prevent you from accomplishing all that God has put inside of you.

Embrace your vision!
