We often hear people say ‘forgive & forget’ & move on. There is some truth in that but let’s give it another interpretation. How about ‘forget it enough to get over it; but make sure you remember it enough when you need to so it doesn’t happen again’. Learn from the experience.
Are you looking for the formula for success in this world and the next? Trust the Almighty. Make Him your priority, not people. Stay the course no matter what challenges you encounter. Keep the faith. Pray. Believe that He wants only good for you. Never give up!
The Almighty knows what you’re doing. He knows exactly what you’re going through. He knows you never gave up. You kept going even when the going was tough. You did your best. You had ultimate patience. You depended on Him every step of the way. And your reward is with Him alone!
Waiting on the Almighty is always worth it. Wait patiently. Don��t settle for anything less. He always has the best plan in store for you. Trust Him. Faith is forceful. Believe that it will happen. May be not today or tomorrow. But it will happen; eventually.
Never leave the Almighty out of the equation. On bad days, trust Him. On good days, glorify Him. On difficult and confusing days, seek His help. Remember, He is always there for you. He will provide for you and protect you. He won’t forsake you.
Blessings are trials in disguise. Wealth. Fame. Social status. Children. Good looks. They’re all trials. The Almighty’s watching how you live with these blessings. If they draw you closer to Him, you’ve won. If they cause you to drift away from Him, you’ve lost the plot!
Stop judging people. That’s the Almighty’s job not yours. Instead look at people with eyes of compassion & empathy. Remember, whatever happened to them could happen to you. The tables could turn. He will show you how quickly you could be in their same shoes. Stay humble always!
Don’t lose focus when you’re being tested. If you let your guard down & let Satan mess with your mind, you’re going to lose the plot & end up miserable. Remember, where you choose to focus is where your life will head. Keep the Almighty in sight always! You’ll emerge the winner!
Remember to thank the Almighty daily for every new day He allows us to face. At times we forget that even another breath of fresh air is a blessing. Forgive us for taking things for granted. May we always be mindful of our blessings and be reminded to count them every day.
If you’re feeling low, understand this. Such is life with its constant ups and downs. Highs and lows. Everything is in a state of flux. Nothing lasts so don’t allow yourself to overly grieve or rejoice too much. Exercise moderation in what you do. Protect yourself at all costs!
