Recently, I met up with a friend and we spoke at length catching up regarding our careers, health, friends/family and rounded up discussing what we were excited for regarding the rest of the year. It was a beautiful time where we had good food and reflected on 9 years of friendship. We have witnessed many different chapters and versions of each other which made me to further reflect on how mindful God has been of me in each ‘phase’ - good, bad and ugly. In each chapter He has remained the same - every step of the way.
I am sure you can also attest of how He has been mindful of you. I can see how life gets better, as I keep my gaze moreso on Him instead of the things that may be going on around me. No longer do I see the ‘wrongs’ or the ‘failures’ as the end of the world but in every ‘yes’ and ‘no’ given I am grateful as it has led me to where I am today. I attended a conference a few weeks ago where it was noted that God is good in both the breakthroughs and in the containment, in the success and in the failures. I honestly hadn’t thought of it in this way but what a beautiful mindset to have. With this knowledge, in all things why don’t we give Him glory and the praises He deserves ?
In your own time, reflect on 1. what you are focusing on at this time. If your gaze is in the wrong place it’ll be hard to see Him clearly. 2. How has God had your back? If you got what you felt you wanted at the time you wanted it would you have stewarded it well? 3.If your feeling restless or hopeless presently turn to Him, for He is our powersource and can keep you encouraged. 4. Don’t forget who He is in your life and what He is able to do. He is a God of suddenly and is able to turn matters around for our good.
Let us pray: Father Lord, I thank you for being so mindful of me. For you have been so faithful, kind and just over the years. As I reflect on your track record, I can’t help but sing of your praises forevermore. Please help me to remain at peace in the fact that you remain the same and never change. I put my hope and trust in you, as you align my life to your will for me. Amen x
