Its truly amazing how time really flies by, it is already the first Thursday of the month of April. The race still continues, like a line in the lyric of a song says "the race is long, in the end it is only with yourself".
It will help your morale not to compare your life with another person or compare your " chapter 1 with another persons chapter 20". The bottom line is this; you been focused, sowing the right seeds, giving time to the things that matter and above all never compromise your relationship with God instead you grow it, invest time in it and enjoy your life blossom.
In case, you would like to drop a note or say a "hello", I decided to put my email forward and it's : smarrsh@gmail.com.

Loosing Your Way?
What do you do when the fear of the future suddenly grapples and paralyses you? When you try to tell yourself the journey hasn't ended amidst the overwhelming voices telling you how far you haven't come? Or that time has almost passed you by? And you are tempted to compare yourself to a long list of people who you feel have accomplished all that you thought and hoped you would have accomplished at this particular time?
Do you wish time could freeze for you so you could get that job, buy that car, build or buy that house, marry that spouse, have that kid so at least you don't feel so left out when you see your mates going over their accomplishments or when you go over them yourself unconsciously in your head and hoping every dream comes into reality with a snap a finger?
Feeling misplaced and don't seem to know where you are heading? We all wish we had a magic wand to make everything all better . Man can never give you the complete answers you are looking for. For example, imagine, you bought an appliance from the manufacturer directly and you have access to the manufacturer, if that particular appliance has issues, who do you complain to? a fellow man like you or the manufacturer directly who has the ability and technical know how to fix that problem?.. and friends that is the same thing with life. God created us, God knows everything about us and when we are faced with problems or our parts do not work, talking about it or complaining to man will not work. it is better to tell God our "manufacturer".
Of a truth, the journey of life can be so challenging that we are often tempted to throw our hands up in the air and give up because we conclude there is no use or its too difficult. Do not limit yourself, lift your head high above that river that seems it can drown you, only believe that that fire will not consume you and even if you have scars to show; do not be ashamed, look at it this way....you went through what killed some people but with the grace of God you came out and you have the proof to show!
Having this at the back of our minds, physical achievements can never be compared to spiritual; achievements True fulfilment is found in resting and dwelling in the presence of God Almighty.
Bless and enjoy the rest of your week!
