Instant gratification is something our society has become accustomed to. In the past, I lacked patience, & when things didn’t work out the way I had wanted, or when I wanted all hell would break loose. - Things don’t always unfold the way we want, and often times we jump to conclusions thinking the worse. But something we need to remember is that “God makes all things work together for good” (Romans 8:28) - I understand that as humans it’s hard for us to see the bigger picture. It’s easy to sit and dwell on what could have been instead of looking ahead of what could be. But more times than not, I find myself in situations where I feel God is putting the breaks on my life to redirect me or to show me that something is better around the corner. - Let me ask you guys this. How many times in life have you gone through a hardship, overreacted, caused yourself and maybe others anxiety, sadness, or pain just to fast forward and realize that it was unnecessary because it ended up working out after all? For me, that’s happened more times than I can count, and it typically leaves me embarrassed and upset that I wasted time freaking out over a situation that didn’t need to be blown out of proportion. - What can you take away from this? #BeStoik stay strong and optimistic even when you feel like life is going against you. Have faith in Gods Plan, because he knows all, we don’t! What we can’t see, he can. Trusting in his timing will give you peace in mind, hope, and courage! - For the full video check out my YouTube Channel.
