Some of us are just too good at expecting failure. If you’re conjuring up a future that hasn’t even happened yet, and exaggerating the worst possible scenario, it’s no wonder you’re stressed.
Wouldn’t it be great if we were able to do the opposite? Like, what if we imagined having success in advance instead of failure? What if we got good at visualizing the best possible outcomes before they happen?
Throughout the Scripture, God was always trying to get His people to see the possibilities instead of the problems. Whether it was a Red Sea, enemy forces, sickness or even death, God imagines what could be a good outcome.
Picturing the desired results and announcing it is an effective way to push yourself toward that action. Sure, it’s scary to step out in faith, but it’s even worse to sit back and turn into a complainer who claims everyone gets all the breaks.
If you expect rejection, it’s a lot easier to live a mediocre life. But, who wants to live with that strategy? Better to attempt making it great now rather than mourn failure later.
Get out there and attempt something great for God and let your friends notice who’s expecting now.
