Growth Happens when you enjoy the Presence of God in your Life

You can’t appreciate your season if you don’t choose to enjoy the presence of God in your life. There are so many blessings around you, and the moment you fail to receive the joy of the Lord, you can’t help but focus on the negative things. So set your eyes on Him and make the most of the blessings that He provided for you. Let your joy be rooted in His love and not in what’s happening around you. Anchor your hope in Him, and you will grow from glory to glory. It will not happen instantly, but if you seek your happiness in His presence, you will appreciate the lessons that He is teaching you through the simple things that happened in your life. 

Embrace God’s goodness and grace.  Focus on the blessings that He gave you, and you will learn to put a smile on your face. Do not allow the negative thoughts to reign inside your mind because they will hinder you from experiencing the presence of God. Instead, fill your thoughts with something that will bless your life. Read His word and remind yourself about the great miracles that He did in your life before. Never forget who you are in the eyes of your loving creator. And only then will you realize that there’s nothing that you should be afraid of.

Be grateful. Thank God for everything that He allowed you to experience. May it be good or bad. Know that everything happens for a reason, and with God, He works all things together for the good of those who love Him. So trust in His love and choose to sing praises to His name. Worship Him despite all the difficulties you went through, and only then will you slowly see His hands moving in the midst. You will be motivated to learn more in His presence because you appreciate His blessings. A grateful heart can help you grow and overcome the obstacles in front of you. Just don’t stop thinking about what God did in your life and keep on glorifying His name.

Do not focus on the negative things that might happen. Instead, enjoy your time with God and treasure your relationship with Him. You will never be afraid to try new things once you learned to enjoy His presence. If you find your satisfaction in Him, He will slowly build up your confidence, and He will give you the courage to move forward and face your problems in life. Only then will you learn new things, and you will discover more of yourself.
