I know I committed to be consistent. There was a post that had been incubating in my heart and I had not felt a release to send it yet. This made me feel I had nothing else to write and anything I had to say might be insignificant.
I left that box in case you wanted to encourage me to keep going. I sincerely need every form of encouragement. I remember seeing it somewhere yesterday about taking those little steps you think are insignificant and not just waiting until that big step you want to take finally happens.
I also got the prompting to give updates about what has been happening in my life. It might uplift or even bring clarity to someone, who knows?
I have been learning to give myself grace since I began my internship placement.
This new phase has taught me to learn to steward time properly as I won’t get less busy as I grow older. Responsibilities would keep increasing so learn to be a good steward of time now.
I am learning to be intentional about my relationships. The truth is everyone is busy but you’ll always make out time for anything or anyone you cherish so that is not an excuse. I love my friends dearly so I must make out time for them.
I am learning to be prompt in obedience. Whatever God tells me to do, I am willing to do it cause some instructions could be time-dependent. Stop wasting time. My Pastor once said, “The problem of your frustration is your calculation, follow the leading of God”.
I am learning that though it may tarry yet it would come to pass. Nobody wants to wait but did you know that for every single time you’ve waited and trusted the Lord, you come out with a strength you never knew you had? My Family has been waiting on some things and this week, everything happened back to back! It felt like 10 years in 1. The harvest is coming. Keep watering your seeds. A seed can never remain as a seed forever. One day, it would bring about a harvest.
I am learning to be audacious. Let it be that I was the one who tried but failed than be the one who never even took a step. Excuses are the building blocks for regrets. Courage is fear that has said its prayers. It’s time to GO!
I am learning that the Grace of God is the Law of God. It is the Law of Spirit and Life. The Grace of God is not lawless. The Grace of God places boundaries. If truly you operate under the Grace of God, there’ll be boundaries he’ll place on you. There are things you can no longer do or say. Grace makes you a son so stop living like a hireling.
I hope you learned something. Please write back what you learned.
Just maybe I’ll be doing this style more often…
The part about waiting and being audacious stood out to me the most.
Having done all that I was asked to do, I'm just here waiting on the God of harvest.
Thank you for this timely reminder.
