2020 Thoughts…

What if…
What if 2020 isn’t a waste?
And it isn’t the year that wasn’t?
Or the year we are sending back?
I’ve laughed at all the 2020 memes. Laughter is good medicine.
But, after a while, God started to speak a different truth.
What if… this is truly the year of clear 2020 vision?
What if… everything uncomfortable is bringing sweeping changes that are desperately needed?
What if… all the promises you heard for this year are still valid!
When I prayed about 2020 I kept hearing that it was the year for breakthrough. I was so excited about what I thought that would look like.
2019 ended in the worst heartbreak of my life, and I thought that surely 2020 was the year everything would change. I clung desperately to the belief that things had to get easier. I wanted breakthrough but I wanted it my way.
In my version of breakthrough, we were going to get ahead financially instead of hanging on by our fingernails, and after years of waiting the dreams we have for our family were finally going to come true. The Cause would flourish and each of our ministries would have more than enough financially. I would finally get to go to Italy, on the trip I had been dreaming about for 10 years.
Life was going to be easy. I would have more than enough. Vacation was coming. My version of the breakthrough was all settled. I knew what it would look like. It was going to be simple, easy, and exactly what I wanted.

“I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me that they may be one as we are one; I in them and you in me.
