Self Development

You can always Choose to Ride along the Waves

There are certain matters in life that you can’t stop. No matter how hard you try to control your situation, you still need to acknowledge the truth that we all have limitations. But despite the things that you can’t do, always remember that God gave you a lot of choices. You can let the problems destroy you, or you can ride along the waves that life throws at you. It’s a matter of perspective. If you only change the way you see the storms in life, then you will realize that there is still something that you can do to overcome them. You just need to open the eyes of your heart and look at your own strength, and only then will you be able to use what you have to face your problems.

Stop resisting the things that are meant to build you from the inside. God allowed you to experience storms in life so that you will grow and explore new things. You will never learn to handle responsibilities if you just keep on staying in the same place. You need to move, and sometimes, the waves you are facing will force you to be in a place where you will find yourself struggling but growing. So be patient and instead of finding ways to ignore the problems in your life. Learn to deal with them with confidence.

Get to know yourself even more and focus on your strength. God will never give you something that you can’t handle. He knows that you can do it, and all this time, He just wanted you to discover your potentials. So give yourself the chance to explore your own capabilities. Do not be afraid to try. Never underestimate your strengths. Focus on your identity in the Lord, and you will never be shaken by any storms you will encounter. You are meant to do great things simply because God is the One who created you. Rely on His love, and you will learn to deal with your problems.

You will never know how to ride along the waves if you are always afraid of failures and pain. Accept the truth that this life is not perfect, which means you will encounter uncertainties that will disappoint and hurt you. But the doesn’t mean you just stay there and do nothing. On the contrary, you can face your problems with boldness, knowing that God will be your strength. You can overcome everything as long as you stay in His presence. You will learn how to deal with the challenges as long as you focus on God’s great power and not on your own weaknesses.
