The older I get, the more I realize that God’s protection often looks like disappointment at first. You thought you lost something, but God was really saving you from it. I’m so thankful for everything that didn’t go my way and every single thing that prepared me for where I am now. Thank you, God, for redirecting me.
The Bible warns us not to look back at old friendships or relationships that God has delivered us from. Lot's wife did and became stuck in time. My prayer is that when you're tempted to return to the past, the spirit reminds you there's so much more ahead of you!
lately, i’ve been including this in my prayer: "if I'm not meant to have it, lord, please remove the desire from my heart to want it, and help me find peace in its absence." 🙏🏾
