God’s Discipline is always better than any Earthly Success
Will you choose to receive earthly wealth and end up broken inside? Or receive God’s discipline and gain treasures that you can take with you even through eternity? Sometimes we are too focused on getting temporary riches that we have already compromised our faith. We no longer honor the will of God and choose to live according to our desires. We tend to judge Him every time we carry the consequences of our mistakes, thinking that He no longer cares for us. But the truth is, He doesn’t want us to go astray. That’s why there will be days when we go through hardships, not to punish us but to…

You just have to allow Him to guide you. He can give you the wisdom that you need. Just stop entertaining your worries. God understands your situation. He knows the best thing to do. Instead of putting conclusions on things that you can’t fully comprehend, why not…
