See, maturity in Christ also means learning to grow tough skin. Don’t let yourself fall into the traps of the past. See it from afar and choose to look the other way.

People may have written you off, but God is about to write you in. People may have turned their back on you, but God is about to welcome you with open arms. They thought they were doing you harm. If only they knew, the more they hurt you, the more they pushed you into your destiny.
Des gens vous ont peut-être critiqué, mais Dieu est sur le point de vous écrire. Des gens vous ont peut-être tourné le dos, mais Dieu est sur le point de vous accueillir à bras ouverts. Ils pensaient qu’ils vous faisaient du mal. Si seulement ils savaient, plus ils vous faisaient du mal, plus ils vous poussaient vers l’accomplissement de votre destinée.

Joseph chose to shift his focus from “what got him” there to “what can I do here” and soon, breakthrough came for him.
See, it takes a lot of courage to be on one path and suddenly realize that you need to make a drastic change. The caveat is: there is no answering the great call, without great sacrifice. We all have that little fire burning within us, that voice that tells us to go after it, but we have gone so far out in our current lives that we often wonder how can I turn around now?
