Where God is taking you is going to require a different version of you a version with more discipline, stronger faith, sharper focus, and complete obedience to Him. Not every battle will deserve your attention, and not every opinion will deserve a response. As God starts opening doors, blessing your life, and making a way where there seemed to be none, not everyone will celebrate you. Some will question it, criticize it, or try to find something wrong with your success because they can’t explain God’s favor. Don’t let their negativity pull you out of your peace. Don’t argue. Don’t try to prove yourself. Don’t repay disrespect with disrespect. Keep your heart clean, stay humble, be kind even when others aren’t, and trust that God will defend you better than you ever could. The same obedience that brought you to the blessing is the obedience that will help you keep it.
I’m at a point in my life where I pray to keep meeting the right people. People who genuinely want the best for me, hold me in high regard, add value in my life, prioritize me and add peace to my life.
