“Good is often an enemy of the Best”

One thing stuck out to me in this morning’s sermon for me. It was that quote. It especially means a lot to me in this season of my life because there are moments when I want to settle, but I know better than that because I know God has something better… He has and is saving the very best for His little girl. I was reminded of that this morning and it has stuck with me through the day. Now all I ask is that it sticks this week… there have been many opportunities to settle for something good in the past week and I know there will be more this week, too. But God saved me last week and I have faith that He will continue to do so. But I need to submit to His Will. I need to listen to Him for discernment and guidance, too.

Good is good. But the best is better. Good might as well be from Satan, seeing that the BEST can only come from God. I want the best for my life, and so does God. I can hear Him in every decision saying “Shauna, don’t settle for that. Yes, it’s good. But it’s not good compared to what I have for you. I have something better… I have your best interests in mind. So, just wait…”
