Your Value is independent from your mistakes!
It's funny how people are so keen to discourage,belittle and discount what matters to us right?
Family members, friends, strangers,co-workers.
People always think they have the right to make us feel the way they feel we should feel.
Some tell you you are crazy only because you have ambitious goals, others will tell you that you are living a fantasy , simply because you have hope for a fairytale, and people will just go on about all the reasons why you should not be so determined about what matters to you.
Worse, people will get very jealous of your potential and try to demolish your life,reputation and efforts at all cost.
These people can be among the one you trust the most.
The bible says:
Matthew 10:16 ESV
"Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.
Which means people will try everything to eat you alive keep your eyes open, protect yourself,don't let your guards down BUT remain a good person even when others are horrible.
Life is unfair,complicated and full of obstacles but God is fair, simple and full of grace and favor.
He will overide everything that is unfair even if it take a decade , meanwhile, he will be by your side each step of the way, if you make room for him by simply, acknowledging that he is able to fix your life and controlling it on your behalf.
Hold on to your goals and dreams and let go of anyone whom is trying to pull you down.
Surround yourself by likeminded people.
The bible advises us as follow:
1 Corinthians 15:33 NIV
Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.”
Give God the opportunity to show you his ability to change your life for the better.
I myself, have had family members discourage me, demolish my plans, betray me and so on ,only for them years later to see how God blessed me anyways and regardless of their efforts.
Friends have become jealous, others were fake or simply spies but realized down the road that with or without them my life went on.
I had a childhood friend betray me after 18 years of friendship, she was being eaten alive by jealousy without me even noticing,meanwhile, I did everything to make her life better.
We stopped being friends, I was very sad but it was God's plan.
Years later she finally apologized.
We are no longer friends as that season has passed ,but I realized that God makes things fair soon or later just take life one day at the time and one prayer at the time.
Simply say God, I have no clue what to do nor where to start but as of today ,help for the rest of my life, and be part of it I commit to you my heart, Jesus my saviour save me, I am tired of doing everything on my own take over and guide me.
This is where the fun begins.
