HAVE YOU ASKED YOURSELF WHY?

We use ‘why’ when we want to find out the reason something happened or is happening and to know how to apply wisdom in addressing the issues.

We have come to the end of the year and it’s time to take stock…just like companies and businesses are doing now. Let’s look back to see how we fared this year…what we did right and wrong and how to make amends where we erred. People who don’t make changes remain the way they are. Don’t expect change using the same method that yielded no results.

Sit down for these few hours left in the year and ask yourself- What did I do wrong? How did I behave this year? Have I represented myself in a way that misfits my person? Why did I lose my friends? Why is my relationship not working? Why did I not get that certificate I wanted? Why did I not learn what I planned out to learn? Why has my prayers not been answered? Is it a heart of unforgiveness? Why have I not gone pass this level or status? Does God want me to learn something that I have refused to learn? Am I where I should be? If not, what am I doing about it?

If you do not ask yourself these questions, you may deny yourself what is ordained for you. Don’t fold your arms and watch life pass you by again in 2016. Make things happen for you. Like the Bible said…work out your own salvation… (Philippians 2:12e). Don’t let life present to you anything. Refuse what you don’t want. Demand from life what you desire. Note, there is a devil in every level. Don’t be discouraged. There is hope when there is life (Eccl 9:4). The end of the tunnel has light but you need to courageously walk through the tunnel. Discouragement will only stop you from doing what you ought to do and cause someone else to take your place.

Resolve in your heart to lean solely on God. He alone can give you all you need and adds joy…joy unspeakable (Proverbs 10:22)

Looking forward to a GLORIOUS 2016!
