Today's Inspiration 🙌🙏

Some of our toughest times come right before our breakthrough. 

"Just when the caterpillar thought the world was ending, he turned into a butterfly." –Proverb 

We often assume if God is with us our road will be easy. From Abraham to Jesus we see countless examples of pain and struggle before glory. 

When Moses tried to convince Pharaoh to free God's people from captivity God hardened Pharaoh's heart. Pharaoh did not immediately release them instead he made their work harder. 

God promised despite Pharaoh's unwillingness to fee the slaves HE would deliver His people from captivity. 

Moses had a short term memory. He began to panic when he felt the pressure from from the people. 

Exodus 5:22-23 (NLT) Then Moses went back to the Lord and protested, “Why have you brought all this trouble on your own people, Lord? Why did you send me? Ever since I came to Pharaoh as your spokesman, he has been even more brutal to your people. And you have done nothing to rescue them!”

We often feel the pressure around us and begin to doubt our ascension.  Caterpillars 🐛 witnessed their relatives and neighbors move to the next level as a butterfly 🦋. Somehow the caterpillar still felt it's world was going to end when it felt pressure. The pressure convinced the caterpillar it would die and not ascend to a butterfly. Despite what he knew to be true. 

Don't allow the pressure to make you forfeit your blessing. Don't complain about the pain. It's temporary. You are so close to your breakthrough. Closer than when you began. Don't turn back. See yourself as the butterfly. See yourself flying high. 

You are what you believe and if you believe it you will achieve it. You are a butterfly. Pain comes before glory. Don't doubt the vision God gave you. 

Place the vision in front of you and relentlessly pursue your destiny. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💞you!
