So many times in life the world has its demands of us and how we should live our lives l wondered in my room. l felt over whelmed in my heart and l look at how far some of the people in my space had moved on.
The pressured kicked in, my mind started to calculate how do l catch up with everything else l thought! l spoke to my self softly and l looked at memory verse in Psalm 103:13 the father speaks As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear HIM. I remembered how l have a great father who has great plans for me and He will never let me settle for nothing.
l honor my father and l love him and He has wants best in store for me. l started looking forward to what life has to offer. Within my soul and knowingly that l have my Father backing me up why should l compare myself to others I thought?
l started to remember key stories in the bible that spoke to me the likes of Esther who knew an orphaned girl would save a whole nation. Ruth after all she had been through she kept being faithful to her mother -in- law and served with love and endurance and better still she was very hard working.
God really had great plans for her with a bonus of a great husband who knew that would happen. Sometimes we are pressed down in different ways but yet the father knows the finish line for us in all things. I have learnt not to settle for anything just because things are moving in a certain direction. God has kept me in line and continuously reminding me of his love. His plans over my life are big and great.
Plsams 20:7 _8 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we remember the name of the Lord our God .They have bowed down fallen;But we have risen and stand upright.
The journey to growth.
