Issue 02; WHAT NEXT?
Hey readers, good day. It's another episode of POTTERED TO PERFECTION.
How have you been? How is your relationship with God too, I hope you are consciously putting in efforts to be built up? Okay! Let's go on.
THE NEXT SYNDROME
It's so easy to get carried away with the “what's next thing”.
What next after school?
What next after marriage?
What next after 30?
What next, what next?
While you're getting carried away by all of these questions and wondering why extraordinary things are happening in others' lives except yours, it's possible not to even appreciate the phase you're in right now.
Social media might not even be helping you in this regard; you see the picture-perfect everywhere, and you are just there. But, before you beat yourself further, let's see a Bible story in the book of Genesis.
THE IMPRISONED RULER
When we read the story of Joseph, how He moved from his father's house to the prison and stopped there we might feel like that's the end of his life but reading further, the whole process and suffering brought him into God's prepared plan for him. But one thing Joseph did all through those moments was to live. He did not beat himself up or stay unhappy hoping that when the best happen then his happiness will return.
All he went through brought was for the bigger picture, and he lived through it all.
So, in conclusion,
God has good plans for you, instead of consuming your energy on what's next, focus on what's on; what is in the moment. Live in the blessings of God and trust in His ability to fulfill all of His promises.
Ciao,💕
Next Tuesday, God willing.
