As autumn is settling in, the nights getting colder, the days filled with rain and slight wind we all know that we are getting ready for winter. As it gets colder we cover up more as we fight the cold draughts that can easily cause sickness. Whilst walking home two days ago the sky was clear which was rather unusual considering the awful weather we were experiencing; the full moon was a beauty to behold and the countless stars shined brightly. Looking into the clear sky I forgot about every situation niggling on my mind and as I stood I was in awe of the beauty and majesty of the brilliance of the clear sky above me.
Too many times in life we allow what is around us to cloud our vision. One thing I learnt that night was that nothing should becloud my vision. I can only go up in life when my vision is clear, however as long as we allow our vision to beclouded by the challenges of life we encounter stagnation and regression. Abraham wanted a son, God had promised him one, yet until he possessed a clear vision he could not go forward. Until you see clearly, you cannot go forward!!
Windscreens have wipers because the driver cannot go anywhere without clear vision. When God took Abraham outside and told him to view the clear sky and count the stars he could see, God was in the process wiping away every cobweb of stagnation and doubt Gen 15:5. To go forward in life one must possess a clear vision. Take stock of where you are going and the journey will become clearer. Don't allow the whispers of failure or distractions from comfortability to scupper your purpose in life. Refuse to allow your present circumstances to hinder your looking up in life. Look up, focus on the vision towards fulfilling your God given purpose and run towards making it happen jumping over every barrier that life throws at you.
