When It's Time To Move On
 
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.  Hebrews 11:1 
 
When your passion for something fades, the grace to accomplish usually goes with it. Does that mean it's time to leave what you've invested so much in? Here are a few thoughts:
  1. Get away and rest. Stress-filled minds are not noted for coming up with good answers. Spend time with God. He's already determined your future (Isa 46:10).
  2. You're not the only one involved. If you don't know how (or you're unwilling) to pass the baton to someone who can take things to the next level, you lose, they lose, and the dream loses. When you've killed your giant, get out of the way and let the next person kill theirs.
  3. Don't just focus on what you're leaving behind. Think also about what you're taking with you when you go; like self-worth, wisdom, faith for the next challenge, and the joy of knowing you've done the will of God.
 
Listen: 'I have brought You glory on earth by completing the work You gave Me to do' (Jn 17:4). Faith is a 'substance.' You can take it with you wherever you go. It'll grow in any climate, thrive in any economy, and move any mountain. It's the voice within you that says, 'I can't wait to see what God has for me next.' It's the greatest evidence that what you can conceive, by God's help and will, you can achieve!
 
Prayer
Heavenly Father, give me that wisdom to know when to move on and turn things over to someone else or to stay and carry on.  In Jesus’ Name, Amen
