Relentless

If I had to use a word to describe myself, I would chose the word relentless.
I do not give up, I do not quit, I do not stop. I had a revelation about this on Saturday morning during my prayer time. This was a huge breakthrough for me, because I entered into it feeling weak, wimpy, and questioning whether half the things I'm fighting and believing for were pointless. God showed me that He made me a fighter. He gave me a strength and a faith that is HUGE.

I don't want the easy things in life, I never have. I want and am believing for the seemingly impossible. There are situations and circumstances in my life right now that LOOK impossible. But I chose to walk by faith, and not by sight. If God promises that the same power that raised Christ from the dead resides within us as believers, why should we put limits on anything? The God I serve is a BIG God, able to do exceedingly, abundantly, so much more then I ever hoped or imagined.
What good is it to say, "look at that molehill I conquered!"....when I can instead say, "Look at the size of that mountain I moved!"

I thoroughly enjoy it when people look at me and think I'm crazy and tell me that things cannot be done. It makes me strive harder because I want to prove you wrong. And I will go at great lengths to do it. What's not possible with man is possible with God. No I cannot do these things on my own, but with Him I can.
Jesus Himself said:
I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there', and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.
(Matthew 17:20)

So why not believe for big things? Why not strive for the seemingly impossible?
I'm not saying it's easy, because it's not. There are times I want to give up. There are times I feel like the tears will never stop. But when I look back at how far He's brought me in just about ten months, it makes me realize that anything IS possible.

So go ahead, roll your eyes at me when I tell you my plan. Talk down to me like I'm young and naive when I tell you my big idea. Tell me it can't be done. No really, do it. Because you add fuel to my fire, and it just makes me work harder.

There is unparalleled joy in looking back and knowing that all the effort, all the tears, all the sowing, all of the praying, were not labored in vain. I am headstrong, strong-willed, and relentless.

I dare you to stop me.
