I will pour out water for the thirsty land and make streams flow on dry land. I will pour out my Spirit into your children and my blessing on your descendants. Isaiah 44:3 (NCV)

At some point in our lives we have all experienced a dry season where we feel like we are in a cycle of disappointment and things don't come together the way we would like them to. It can be hard to imagine that all the hard things we have had to deal with has a purpose. But in spite of how you feel in this moment or what it looks like, every obstacle that you've faced is a vital piece of the puzzle for where you are going.
Sometimes God allow certain things to unfold in our lives to get our attention , move us to a point where we reevaluate our motives and begin to put our hope back in Him. What we must realize is that God never promised that our walk with Him would be easy and that once we became saved things would just automatically flow into place. What He did promise is to never leave us nor forsake us. So when we really begin to trust His plan for our lives we will succeed. He will make a way in spite of what things look like.
So when you find yourself at a crossroad don't begin to despise the path you're on but seek God relentlessly and pray your way through every obstacle. God is bigger than anything that we will ever face. He wants to see us succeed but we must be willing to give up our will in exchange for His because it is the only way to true victory. When we really lean on the Lord He will pour into us in ways we couldn't begin to imagine.
O God, my God! How I search for you! How I thirst for you in this parched and weary land where there is no water. How I long to find you! Psalm 63:1(TLB)
The test we face are not meant to break you down but they are meant to build you up. Change your outlook on the seasons of your life as a opportunity to pass the test and get that much closer to your purpose. Don't give up now. There is so much more ahead of you. Ask that God would replenish you as you become weary and guide you along the way and He will meet you at the point of your faith.
Love,
