Expect for Great things and be Grateful along the Process

God prepared great things for you. Your present may appear opposite to the future you long for, but your Father in heaven is working behind the scenes. He designs a perfect path for you. Sometimes, He allows the obstacles and challenges to give you a chance to grow. It’s part of the process. That’s why, when you can’t understand what’s going on in your life, just stay grateful. Focus on the blessings that God gave you. Enumerate the good things that you experienced in your life. Recall those times when God performed miracles in your darkest seasons. Never forget His presence because He alone can help you overcome your disappointments and problems. Believe with all your heart, mind, and soul that the future that God prepared is greater than what you prayed for.

The journey won’t be easy. There are situations that will tempt you to give up. There will be brokenness and pain along the way. But the good news is, if you choose to follow the path that God created, you will always end up in places you never dreamed of. He will take you to the future that He planned even before you were born. You are already in His mind even before you treated Him as your King. It means that He carefully planned the things that you need to experience for you to receive more of Him. All you need to do is stay patient and be grateful throughout the process. Let your faith be greater than your doubts and all your worries. Let your thoughts be aligned with God’s perspective. Only then will you have the courage to thank Him even when you can’t understand what’s happening.

When you want to give up, always remind yourself that God’s grace is always sufficient. Focus on what God wants you to do. Allow Him to lead you through His words. Let His promises give you the strength that you need. Activate your faith and remember that this is not about your own efforts or deeds. But it’s about your trust in God that matters most in the end. Open your heart and let His love remind you to move forward. Let His peace gives you the comfort that you need. Always connect to Him through your prayers, and you will learn to persevere. Your faith in God will take you to a bright future.

With a grateful heart, choose to praise and glorify God along the process, especially in times when you are in pain. It’s when the deepest form of worship happens. When you don’t know what to do, choose to raise your hands and surrender to the will of God. When you are so scared of what might happen next, just submit to God all your worries, and He will surely give you the assurance that you need. Listen to His voice, and you will always be guided.
