One of the things that cuts deep is when a dream or desire is delayed. It can be very difficult to press forward when it seems as if the thing you desire most is not coming to pass. Particularly when you are looking around and it appears as if everyone around you is accomplishing their goals or having their dreams fulfilled. This can be very demoralizing, but the Message bible has something very powerful to say: Proverbs 13:12 Unrelenting disappointment leaves you heartsick, but a sudden good break can turn life around. (Message) This verse tells us that all you need is one good break, and it can turn your life around! Just one good break! So the challenge is that when the dream is not coming to pass keep pressing forward and live with the realization that you are just one good break away from having your life turned around!
