In life, there will be times when you feel like things are moving fast and others when it feels like nothing is happening at all. In these moments, ask yourself: Have I taken a step I didn’t take before, and am I moving in the direction God has for me? If the answer is yes, then you have made progress, regardless of how slow it feels.

Avoid the comparison game.

God’s plan for you does not mirror anyone else’s plan, so run the race he has given you. Even if you take longer to get to the finish line, if God has called you to it, he will make sure you arrive at your destination. Just remember it will happen in his time, so as you run, remember God is faithful. Take each step with the confidence that God is working in you even when the progress feels slow.

TONIGHT’S SCRIPTURE

“The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:24

YOUR NIGHTLY PRAYER

Father,
Thank you for progress. Sometimes I feel as if everyone else is so far ahead and nothing is happening. Honestly, it makes me feel forgotten. Remind me tonight that you have not forgotten me and that your work is not always about speed, but about depth and building character. Help me appreciate where I am now so I don’t miss the lessons you want me to learn at this point. As I walk with you, let me find joy in the journey and focus on where you are taking me and not on how long it takes to get there. Let me know tonight that you are faithful and will accomplish what you set out to do. Let this be the place where my hope, trust, and confidence lie today and every day.
This I pray in Jesus’ name,
Amen.

THREE THINGS TO MEDITATE UPON

1. God is never in a hurry to accomplish things in your life because his goal is not just to help you arrive but to ensure you can stand when you get there.

2. People are all at different stages. Some are ahead of you and some behind you. Neither should affect how you feel about where you are.

3. Looking back occasionally can be a great source of encouragement because you can see how far you have come.
