MAKING THINGS WORK

Many times we fail to understand a simple basic principle that: we hold the ultimate key to unlocking our destinies. Do not get me wrong, God directs us and is the author of our individual destinies. My point is a simple one; we have the call to either activate and follow through or deactivate what God has ordained for us. Making things work has never been a simple task to follow through, especially when everything around us seems to fail. My mother used to say, “When days get rough, normally better days are around the corner”. This is very true of our lives, the challenge is that we give up easily and instead of making things work we rather watch things fall apart.

We spend a lot of time; money and energy focusing on things that are not really important and that barely fulfil our destinies. I have realized that 90% of the time it is because we want to please people around us and at the same time satisfies our ego. We end up buying things we do not need just to please people; get financially frustrated because we cannot afford the lifestyle we have set for ourselves; getting ourselves into huge debts and ultimately putting things that matter last, like our responsibilities; children; your spouse or even your work. Always remind yourself that it is easy to tie yourself to something than it is to get out of it. Nothing cripples you more than trying so hard to please others and forgetting yourself. Keep in touch with God; keep in constant and firm connection with Him. Let him direct your path, ask for His guidance and then allow yourself to make things work. 

There is no greater joy than that which you definitely know comes from God and you worked for. Making what you love and what God has shown you work, leads to ultimate happiness and satisfaction. No matter how much people go against what God wants for you, simply keep holding on to your beliefs. Remember also, that where you find yourself is directly linked to where God wants you to be. This is as far as your destiny is concerned; I am not talking about finding yourself in a bar or doing something you know is not consistent God’s principles, absolutely NOT.

Make things work for yourself and your loved ones. Be motivated by both positive and negative experiences in your life. It is preparing you for bigger and better things. God bless you.
