That's what the scripture says.

In the scripture, Joseph was engaged to a young lady named Mary.
55
An angel appeared to her and said she was going to have a baby without knowing a man, and they were to name him Jesus.
56
You can imagine how Joseph must have felt when Mary told him she was pregnant, not with his baby, but with the Messiah.
57
I'm sure he thought, yeah, right.
58
He was going to quietly call off the engagement, but that night an angel appeared to him in a dream.

Mary said was true, that he was to go ahead with the marriage.

Joseph could have backed out, thought, God, I didn't sign up for this.
62

63
Find somebody else.

69
Mary on a donkey.
70
She was nine months pregnant.
71

It would be one thing if this was across town, but this was a 90-mile journey.
73
It would take about 10 days.
74
I've seen what it's like for Victoria to be pregnant.
75
How uncomfortable, especially toward the end.
76
Her back was hurting, feet swelling.
77
I can't imagine telling her at nine months pregnant, honey, to fulfill prophecy, we have to get on a donkey and go 90 miles.
78
I think I would be hearing, welcome to heaven.
79
Sometimes God asks us to do things that are difficult.
80
Mary could have said, not getting on that donkey.
81
It's too bumpy.
82
My feet hurt.
83
You can go by yourself, but you never read where Mary complained.
84
You never read where Joseph was sour.
85
They just kept traveling steadily, doing what God asked them to do.
86
Day after day, getting on the donkey, dealing with the heat, finding a place to sleep at night.
87
God only spoke to them one time.
88
This whole trip, 90 miles, God never said anything.
89
Would have been much easier if the angel would have come back and said, you're doing great.
90
Keep going to Bethlehem.
91
You're right on track.
92
It's easy to follow God when you hear him speaking.
93
You have clear direction.
94
Things are going your way.
95
But the real test is, how do you respond when God is silent?
96
You don't hear anything.
97
You're doing the right thing, but it's not improving.
98
You're being your best, but doors aren't opening.
99
Months have gone by, maybe years, and you don't hear anything.

102
Keep being consistent.
103
Keep being faithful.
104
Joseph and Mary finally arrived at Bethlehem.
105
I can imagine it was late at night.
106
Mary was getting close to having the baby.
107
Joseph walked up to the inn, the hotel.
108
He said, Mary, wait here.
109
I'll go arrange a room.
110
The innkeeper said, I'm sorry, sir.
111
We're full.
112
We have no more room.
113
Joseph could have thought, God, you said come to Bethlehem.
114
You said this was your baby.
115
Why is nothing working out?
116
Instead, Joseph went back out, told Mary to get back on the donkey.
117
They were tired, disappointed, uncomfortable, but they just kept traveling steadily.
118
God rewards faithful people, people that don't give up, People that don't let a disappointment cause them to be sour.
119
People that don't let a setback, a loss, a delay to stop their destiny.
120
When things happen that we don't understand, our attitude should be, Father, thank you that you are working out your plan for my life.
121
You are ordering my steps.
122
You are opening doors that no man can shut.
123
Thank you that you'll get me to where I'm supposed to be.
124
Don't let a bad break, a delay, a pandemic, a person that did you wrong
125
cause you to quit believing for your dreams and quit pursuing what God put in your heart.
126
You are full of can-do power.
127
The same spirit that raised
128
Christ from the dead lives in you.
129
You are not weak.
130
You are a warrior.
131
Now dig your heels in and be consistent, not just when everything is going your way, Not just when there's room at the end,
132
business is flourishing, but when the door closes, when the contract doesn't go through, when the journey is longer than you thought.
133
God is looking for people that are determined, people that have stamina.
134
You can't be weak and reach your destiny.
135
You can't be half-hearted and become who you were created to be.
136
God will be silent at times.
137
You don't hear anything.
138
Things are not improving.
139
You're on that donkey, so to speak.
140
Doors aren't opening.
141
What are you to do?
142
Keep being faithful.
143
Keep getting to work on time.
144
Keep singing in the choir.
145
Keep being good to those neighbors.
146
Keep thanking God when you feel like complaining.
147
If it was going to happen instantly, you wouldn't need any faith.
148
Don't be impatient for God to act.
149
Just because the inn is full doesn't mean there's not a place for your baby to be born.
150
Just because you've had a setback, somebody walked away, the medical report isn't good, doesn't mean that your dream is not going to come to pass.
151
What God promised you cannot be stopped by people, by circumstances, by bad breaks.
152
God wouldn't have allowed the end to be full if he didn't have something better.
153
My question is, are you going to keep traveling steadily?
154
Are you going to keep believing, keep praying, keep doing the right thing?
155
Joseph and Mary packed up, got back on the donkeys, disappointed but still moving forward,
156
tired, hungry, back hurting, but still traveling steadily.
157
Joseph looked up and saw this old barn where they kept animals.
158
Wasn't a nice hotel.
159
Didn't have a bellman out front.
160
No room service.
161
Just a manger where the sheep rest.
162
It wasn't what they had in mind.
163
But God doesn't always do things the way we have planned.
164
His ways are not our ways.
165
If you don't stay open, you'll be frustrated because they wouldn't let you in.
166
Upset because the door didn't open.
167
Can I tell you, God knows what he's doing.
168
When it's time to birth your baby, all the forces of darkness cannot keep you out.
169
There will be a place for you to shine, for you to flourish, for you to show this world what God put in you.
170
Now quit worrying about who wouldn't let you in, why this didn't work out, it wasn't fair.
171
You weren't supposed to be in the end.
172
They weren't supposed to have room for you.
173
Your blessing is not in the end, it's in the manger.
174
Your increase, your favor, your abundance is not in where you've been, it's in where God is taking you.
175
It's not in where you were left out, it's in where you're going.
176
Now do your part and start moving forward in faith.
177
Not bitter over disappointments, not discouraged over what didn't work out, not upset because it's taken longer.
178
There were delays and detours.
179
God is saying if you'll keep traveling steadily, being faithful when nobody is noticing, doing the right thing when it's uncomfortable,
180
not complaining because you don't see things changing, then you're going to give birth to dreams bigger than you've imagined.
181
God's going to do uncommon, unusual, extraordinary things.

He's ordering your steps.
193

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
