Your Success means Nothing if your Character will be Destroyed in the end
Never compromise your character just for you to achieve success. Who you are on the inside is like a foundation that shouldn’t be shaken by the temporary treasures of this world. Remember that God’s standard is different. He sees your heart, and He knows what can truly make you happy. So instead of insisting on the things that you wanted to achieve, choose to consult Him and let Him lead you to the right way. Who you are on the inside is more important than what other people physically see. This life is not about gaining honor for yourself, but it’s about glorifying God in the end. Only Him can satisfy your heart and not the success that you will gain in this world.
Choose to do things slowly but surely. Be true to God and walk with Him along the journey. Sometimes, it will take longer than expected but be patient and know that you are in good hands. Choosing to do the right thing is always better than instant gratification. You will reach your dreams in God’s perfect timing. Just allow Him to mold your character first so that you can properly handle the blessings that He prepared for you. Let the challenges you face change the way you see things. Let your problems lead you to become a better person.
Go through the process, and don’t be in a hurry. Wait for God to move and keep walking. Hold His hands and when you feel so tired, just call upon His name, and He will be there. His grace will sustain you until the end. He will take good care of you. Depend on His love and listen to His voice so that when you receive everything that He prepared, you will know how to steward them and do things according to His purpose. You may not see the changes around you, but deep inside, God is strengthening your character.
Let your values be aligned to the heart of God. Seek Him in everything that you do, and always remember that the long wait will be worth it. Soon, you will thank Him for teaching you so many things. You will feel so grateful for the challenges you face because you learned to be humble and honest. The hardships and pain you experience along the journey will turn into a blessing that will lead you closer to God. When He tries to mold your character, He will use you for a greater purpose. And it’s bigger than what you can imagine.
