Your story is a good example of what if it'll turned out after a person yield to the call despite difficulties, or challenges. Maybe it’s really more appropriate to coined difficulties and problems, as challenges, because it will train our hearts and minds to see the problem as a challenge and no challenge is difficult with our God. I was reminded when by one quote by TD Jakes "for every vision, there is provision". And when God gives us a vision, eventually He'll also provide for the vision to be fulfilled. And it’s important for us to trust and have faith in God. This is what, I was reminded when I read your post pastor, I am convinced that I lack on this at times, I am even judging Gods judgment if he wants me to do something.
And most of the time I’ll end up not doing it since my convictions will tell me so and then realize that my convictions where not aligned in his will. It’s a good reminder for every one that when we receive a vision, expect challenges and testing but after all of this, God is faithful to provide for our needs, and the needs of the vision to be fulfilled.
