You remember the time you thought if you passed JAMB and got admission into the University, your problems in life would have ended? How far now? 😂 The truth is, life is filled with challenges at every major point. Instead of wasting time complaining, enjoy the ride.
I remember when it was my turn to get into school, I was so jealous of people that had finished with school, I thought once you finished, gbam! It was time to "chop life." No one told me I was thinking like a comedian. Absolutely, no one!
I got into school, got done, life started, and I'm like, "nobody prepared me for this"😂😂
Nothing prepares you for the questions you'll have to answer to from nosey people. Nothing prepares you for the various battles, nothing, absolutely nothing prepares you for the increased wants and needs. Lol.
Fam, God didn't promise a life free of challenges, he only promised to be there all along. Stop wasting your life complaining, wishing, dreaming for a better life, or waiting for the NEXT BIG THING. Enjoy the moment, learn, move on.
Just a small tip on how to enjoy the moment:
-Rest on Jesus your hope
-Rest when you're tired
-Give your all into whatever you do.
-Collaborate,
-Lend a helping hand, and receive help too.
-Be optimistic for a better tomorrow.
The next big thing would come, but even when it does, it wouldn't be free of hurdles, but rest in this assurance - You have overcome, you're not without help, you've got the greatest person on your team!!
I hope this puts light in your heart and a broad smile on your face. You'll def be fine. Have you ever had to deal with the "waiting" period? How did you deal? Please share your experiences.
I had a friend that said their mind, only when telling a joke. They didn't know that I'm God's baby girl and in turn God's paddy. He highlighted the seemingly "meaningless" lines to me as though with a bold marker.
They'd want to express some jealousy, but they'd do it in the form of a joke and for every time they did, I could discern what exactly they intended to say, and that was because I had made a simple but sincere prayer to God.
It went like, "Lord, please I don't want to find myself living Psalm 1:1." God did not only answer my prayer but also gave me the ability to make the right choices and the necessary tools that I needed to do that—The gift of Discernment.
Sometimes, God’s intentionality about us shows in really random things. There are times you have a thought/desire you didn’t even pray about, & you just come across it on your social media or somewhere you weren’t expecting. A God who hears our WORDS and HEARTS. We stan 🙌
There are lovers that listen to every words you utter and grant your desires. Then there’s that lover who not only pays attention to your words, but to your heart too... He listens to every of your unsaid words and satisfies you, how refreshing to know!
The times you craved for shawarma and got it without asking,
The times you needed money and someone just asked for your account number (out of the blues. Lol)
The times you needed a friend and he sent someone to love you... I mean, you remember those times, don’t you?
Sis, You Said No To Him Already, So Why Are You Still Monitoring His Life?
Why are you stalking him, really? Why are you checking his social media to see if he has the picture of another lady? You already said you weren’t interested, so why?
I’m talking to you my dear, why so bothered? Why do you still look out for him at events or gatherings? Oh, I get it, the Bible tells you to be your brother’s keeper, so you’re trying to do your part innit? Lmao!
I’m not done... why does your stomach knot when you see him talking to another lady? What’s the challenge? I mean, the young gentleman met you and spoke to you about his interest, you said no,
