The moment of truth in every job is the obstacles, roadblocks, and dead-end that a person must endure. Obstacles are a part of every assignment. They are put in place to impede and make you succeed. Obstacles originate from people, processes, and productivity. Each successful business or person will have obstacles they must go through. The main focus of the obstruction is not the obstacle, but how you can eliminate or maneuver around it. Thus obstacles become opportunities. Every obstacle has a limited lifespan until it is solved by reengineering it another way to meet the need. It does not need to take more money and more people to resolve the issue, but to truly solve it from occurring again, you have to take it apart piece by piece and understand what the root cause is. God has given you critical thinking and networking skills to claim the victory.
James 1:2-4 – My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.
Prayer – Heavenly Father, I need your assistance in embracing opportunities and obstacles. Don’t allow me to get stuck and not see the good in this. I know there is a plan for me. Let me make the most of it. Amen.
