Facing Daunting Tasks

-Discipleship-

Surrounding yourself around fellow Christians will help keep your life on track. The people that you choose to spend your time with, will determine the actions that you accept. Surround yourself with others that are after God’s own heart, after His truth, His vision, and His pursuit to spread the word to others. During the toughest of seasons, these friendships can propel you forward. They can encourage you to continue to pursue greatness. These friendships will remind you that all that truly matters is what you do for the Lord, all the material things are temporary. Relationships have eternal value. Facing the daunting tasks of our tomorrows becomes a lot easier knowing that you are loved by those around you.

-Eternal Security-

Once you are saved by the grace of God, you will always have the Lord present within your soul. The Lord is your forever master. Living a life of obedience to the Lord is how one may secure such a gift of eternal life. The tasks of tomorrow end up becoming not as daunting when you realize that you have eternal security within the kingdom of the Lords.

-Process of Peace-

Though the tasks may be ever pressing and increasingly daunting, the Lord is with you every step of the way. The Lord craves your longing for Him to ask for his guidance and intervention. The Lord has a divine message within the struggles that we face. The Lord may be forming you into a stronger individual to be ready for the upcoming events of your life. Eternal peace will save you from so much worry and stress. The Lord is the ultimate stress reliever. Let Him take control over your situations. The Lord wants to soothe your soul with His promises and encouraging words. The Tasks that once were so daunting can become tasks that are doable with help from the Lord. Let the Lord set the pace. Leave your problems at the feet of Jesus, He longs to give you rest.

-Providence-

The Lord works each situation in life out uniquely. Though we may not understand why we have to face certain situations/tasks in life, the Lord is forever righteous. Food for thought: once the task is complete, it’s complete!! There is a new day tomorrow and the Lord is gracious to forgive us each and every single day. A priori, of how often we come to the conclusion that we know that the outcome will be awful before we have even started a task! Being a perfectionist is coming that has been a struggle with me in the realm of school work and other various forms of work that I partake in. Just because I don’t receive an A on every assignment or complete a task in the correct manner, does not mean that I’m a failure. It simple means that I’m human and that I’m capable of improvement at all times. The Lord is the only person to have ever achieved perfection. Through the Lord’s eternal gift of salvation, He clothes us in a robe of perfection before His very eyes.

Key Verses:

And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you (1 Peter 5:10 ESV).

 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing (James 1 2-4 ESV).
