LESSONS FROM DISAPPOINTMENT

LESSONS FROM DISAPPOINTMENT

Many years ago, an uncle said, “Once it is time for that meeting, I will take care of the transport. You all are blessing lives”. I was already overjoyed.

When it was some days to the meeting and I had settled amount with the bus drivers, I called uncle so he could fulfill his promise. The response I got was so cold and negative.

That was my training where I learnt that God’s work will only be done God’s way and on God’s bill. I learnt it very early in my ministry walk.

Second, you must never get offended no matter how men treat you. It is God who moves men on your behalf. Do not be angry that the uncle did not help you though he had a lot of money.

They become the track through a maze that kept you away from places that would have cost you more than you can imagine or recover from in life and destiny.

Do you know what the Psalmist said?

You caused men to ride over our heads [when we were prostrate]; we went through fire and through water, but You brought us out into a broad, moist place [to abundance and refreshment and the open air].
Psalm 66:12 AMPC

The disappointments of life is not the end. You will come out to your wealthy place.

There is love in sharing
