Message summary & scripture references

As you work on the vision God has given you, you will periodically experience some tough situations that may cause you to wonder if God has called you to do something else. In those times, it is important to get reconfirmation from God about your vision. It is not a sin (or lack of faith) to ask again. In fact, by getting reconfirmation, you will strengthen your faith and acquire the needed motivation to push on to victory.
