Starting point– Once we have prepared it would be a complete waste of time if we did not actually start on the journey we have prepared for. No matter how insignificant you believe your starting point is, trust God and just start. As a Chinese philosopher once stated “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” We all have to start sometime. Often times in life we start without preparing for the road ahead; assuming we do not need to prepare. This idea regularly ends in disaster especially since we have a tendency to exclude God from our lives when we approach life this way. Starting without God and His blessing will lead to a road of frustration, disappointment, and destruction. However, God can and will use the wrong starting points in our lives and turn them into a positive outcome if we will surrender to Him. The Bible plainly promises us this in Romans 8:28. Like anyone I have had several starting points in my life; I started preaching at the age of 4, I started school at the age of 6, I started being a father at the age of 17, and I started pursuing the goals and dreams God has placed in my heart just to mention a few starting points. The fact is we all have countless starting points in our lives; some of them good others we are not proud of. Even though often times we may stumble and get lost for a moment God gives a new starting point on a daily basis!
