Do not Withhold Yourself from the Opportunities God has Given You
There will be times when God will give you different options. But because of the doubts, you would sometimes hold yourself back to take one or not. You feel scared of the risk and the things that will happen because you do not know where it would lead you yet. Sometimes, you suddenly realize that you are not ready for it. You will feel nervous and scared. The changes may frighten you, but remember that God already prepared what you need.
Not all opportunities are presented in a pot of gold. Some of them look like clay that you still need to mold. There are things that God will give you directly but most of the time, it will lead you to figure out the messages that God planted with it. You will then unravel things that God wants you to learn. You will uncover messages on the journey that God prepared for you. It could be something that will change your heart or something that will make you realize the reality of life. It could also be that God is preparing your heart to be generous for the bigger blessings that He will give you.
Life becomes a mystery because we do not know what lies ahead. Just remember, every opportunity God has given you leads to your growth. Try not to overthink too much of how to do all of it. If He says go, then do so. Obey Him at all costs. God will not give you an opportunity that will destroy you. It might bend you but He will not allow it to break you. Also, it is not just about the opportunity itself but also about the One who gave it to you. He destined good things to happen in your life and it is up to you if you will take it or not.
Try not to label opportunities with how the world defines it. Opportunities are not just about gaining wealth and making money. It is more than that. Opportunity represents growth. It is about learning what is and what is not important in this life. It is about you and your journey with God. Take it as a blessing. Treat it as a chance to improve yourself, to mold your heart, and to change your mindset. Explore the things that God prepared. Experience His favor and His moving in your life. Let God lead and teach you.
Remember, life is not a race. Things take time. God has His time. Be excited with the blessings that He will reveal to you. Remember, the journey will not just be about you. It will be about God’s greatness. Now, let Him be acknowledged in everything that you do. Take the opportunities that He prepared for you and ask Him to lead you to His will. Learn and grow with Him and have your life fulfilled in His favor.
