Recently I went for a run. I saw a neighbor on the other side of the street walking his dog. I waved and he shouted back, "How many are you doing?" I confidently yelled back, 8!" Minutes before, I was thinking, what about 7? Maybe 7 1/2. Do I have to do 8? What did I do after yelling 8? I completed all 8 miles. Why did I do all 8? Because someone else was counting on me, they knew my goal and what I had set out to accomplish. We need others in our lives to hold us accountable, if it's a goal for work, a project at home, or a relationship that needs improvement. State it out loud to someone else and hold yourself accountable.

In this process of achieving the best it is important to know where you want to go in life. You can reach your goal, your best dreams can come true, you can get where you want to go only if you know what your goal is.
Your expectations must have a clearly defined objective.

Expecting the best means that you put your whole heart into what you want to accomplish. People are defeated in life not because of lack of ability, but for lack of wholeheartedness. They do not whole-heartedly expect to succeed. Their heart isn’t in it, which is to say they themselves are not fully given. Results do not yield themselves to the person who refuses to give himself to the desired results.

“The only way our faith will ever strengthen is for us to use it. We need to apply thought and prayer to our decisions and then trust God for the outcome. We need to set our sights on growing in faith, not shrinking back in fear of failure.”

In Exodus 14:16, Jehovah speaking to Moses instructs him, “But lift thou up they rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it.” Moses was leading the Israelites out of Egypt, Pharaoh's army was fast approaching in chariots. He came to a great obstacle, the Red Sea, there was no way over or around. Moses didn’t have the answer. He prayed. The answer was to stretch his rod over the water. Where would Moses have to be standing to stretch out his hand over the sea? Putting one foot in front of the other, he entered the water’s edge. Deeper and deeper he went. The outcome wasn’t clear. He had to do his part before the incredible miracle of water parting occurred. What miracles are awaiting you if you put one foot in front of the other, trust in the Lord, and stretch?

The first question my best friend asked me when I told her, one morning over breakfast, that I thought I was ready to start dating after my divorce was, “Do you have the faith that the right person is out there for you?”
My response was, “yes.”
She looked me dead in the eyes and deliberately stated each word again,
“Do-you-have-the-faith-that-the-right-person-is-out-there-for-you?”
I didn’t have an answer. I ask you the same question,
“Do you have the faith that the right person is out there for you?”

“Worth doesn’t just come from our heads. It comes from our hearts. A feeling that no matter what, I am worthy of love and belonging and a knowledge that I will not sacrifice either for someone else’s opinion of me.” Chanell Clark
