Sometimes, the Right Choices Lead you to Rough Roads

You have the power to choose which path to take in your life. You have control over your fate. However, there are times when the situation will test how you will weigh things. But the great thing is that you have the freedom to choose. Give some time to understand the problem. Think of the risks and possible consequences first. Do not let your emotions dictate you. Base your decisions objectively, for they could affect you more than you think. It could affect your loved ones and essential people in your life.

Sometimes you will be tempted to take the most accessible way just to escape a complicated situation. But remember that not all easy ways will give you the right outcome. Always ask God first for wisdom. Do not be in a hurry. Meditate on your situation because there are times when complicated things are teaching you how to deal with it rather than pulling yourself out from it. It will teach you how to humble yourself to receive His instruction. He will patiently guide you. He will be with you. He sends people who can help you as well.

Your situation will teach you a lot of things. Worthy things take time to possess. Big things take a lot of time to make. You will have to work hard for it. God is not withholding His blessings. Instead, He is teaching you that patience and waiting have rewards. He is putting you to the test to strengthen your faith and for you to depend more on Him. He believes in you and your capabilities. That is why, do not be discouraged when He asks you to do bigger things. Do not compare yourself to others who have done it effortlessly. You are meant for different things. It will be your journey with Him. Don’t worry. You will receive bigger things that He has prepared for you already.

Pray and talk to God about what He wants you to partake in. Ask for advice and learn from your situation. Correct choices will sometimes ask more of your effort. It will make you go through a difficult journey. But if it is the right thing to do, just remember that He will be with you throughout the way. Yes, it will be uncomfortable, and it feels heavy at first. But rough roads can lead you to beautiful destinations. Hold on to the promises that God told you. Treasure the lessons that you learned on the journey. And never let go of the strength He promised you.
