Message summary & scripture references
I used to believe that if you follow the calling God gave you, things would be perfect all the time. However, that belief is so far from the truth that it is dangerous to our success. God doesn’t promise us a perfect path, but victory in the end. It is important to receive this revelation so we don’t quit our calling when things get hard.
