God is Preparing you to be a Vessel of His Love

God will let things happen in your life. Everything that comes your way has its reasons.  What you experienced may not not be part of your original plans, but it has a purpose. You may be tempted to compromise your time, schedules, or even some of your treasures. However, believe in God when He makes you do such things. He is preparing your heart and mind to become a vessel of His love for others. Your purpose in life is not just defined by what you can do. But it will become more meaningful once you realize that God sees you as someone who can glorify His name.

Everything in this life is temporary. The name you worked hard for, the things that define your fortune, and the treasure that you wholeheartedly take care of are all, one day, gonna fade. The things that stress you and the problems that make you sleepless are all gonna meet their end. But what lasts are the things God allows you to do for others. The things that are only felt and remembered are the natural treasures He wants you to have. He wants to cultivate your heart to see life more profoundly. He wants you to see beyond what your eyes could land unto and what the heart could feel. 

The things and events you have been through are trying to teach you one thing or more. They did not happen just because that is what life does, but it somehow communicates to you. God will use anything (people, events, things)  to teach you important lessons. That is because He sees you as someone who can communicate His love to others. 

He will not only use those people who are good. He can use anybody, even those who are punished for sins. He will use people who have gone through so much pain as someone who knows how to endure, believes, and have faith. He will use those who have less to teach you how to share with the smallest amount they have. He will use those who don’t have much to teach you that you have what they can also have. 

God is preparing you to become a vessel of His love. Remember that He sees things that most of us don’t. He knows you better than anyone. When you ask something from Him, He will answer in ways that sometimes confuse you. Yet, believe that He has a reason behind everything. Never take His word for granted. Always remember that like plants need to be taken care of to grow beautifully, He is also tending you the same way. Seasons will come and go in your life but always leave something for your heart. 

He is not punishing you. Instead, He is furnishing you with His love and favor. You may not understand everything, but rest assured that His promises will be there. Once you live in His love, your life isn’t just yours but you are His. Everything in your life will undergo a process. But do not worry. In every step, He will be with you. He takes care of you. He is molding you so that you can share His love to others.
