Jeremiah 29:11 11 for I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to
prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
Life is a beautiful Gift from above. Life is so precious and valuable because the designer of life is the Master, Ruler, Friend, Father, a Sweet Savior and the King over all the earth. The designer designed life in a way to cherish, celebrate and enjoy at its best. But the secret of life is holding hands with our father. How a Radio seems operational when it’s actually connected with the frequency in the air, similarly our lives are purposeful when we are actually in connection with our father in heaven. This thought would have crossed our minds that in spite of God knowing all things in our lives, We still face challenges in life.
The question Why always used to pop in my mind. The feeling of being stuck and not able to move forward ruled my mind. I would like to share my life experience. I joined a company where I didn’t have an increment for two years, a promotion with no remuneration, a business with no profit and anything that I did never used to succeed. Few other questions used to push me down even more like, why are you not married still? Oh, why are you with a low salary? Where is your new house, boss? Oh, you still haven’t got settled in your life. But I really love everyone who have asked me these questions. Because these were the times and they were the ones who helped me realize that I am not useless, unworthy, profitless, rejected, broken, fit for nothing. But I have a purpose and a plan which my father in heaven has designed and gifted me to cherish, celebrate and enjoy at its best.
The truth is my designer is a super great father, who loves, cares, forgives and aligns me and give good things to me at the very right time in my life. He will never leave me, nor forsake me. He is my good father and does only good.
We all face rejections, failure, brokenness and challenges in our lives, questions might have popped up like is this what am created for? Obviously not. You are creatively, uniquely, wonderfully, fearfully and beautifully crafted by God for a plan and a purpose. Don’t get struck by the patterns of the world, instead know who our father is and enjoy life at its best. Always have this in mind that we are the seed of this world, A seed goes into the ground and it doesn't sprout the very next day. It’s a process which it undergoes, where it has to be watered daily, it requires sufficient sunlight, good atmosphere, good protection and above everything it needs good nutrition to grow. The same way our life is a process, never forget to pray, read and meditate the word of God and seek God more daily and everything will surely fall on track as we seek him. Never respond to the problems, never get worried instead take this up to the father – The One who reveals His plans for our lives.
Let's not discharge our batteries by looking at the negative things that surrounds us. Rather let's recharge ourselves by submitting ourselves to the perfect will of the father.
