Beyond our small dreams and expectations
Every human has dream and desires to be achieved in this life. However, when everything does not turn to the expected side one feels discouraged and bad about it. This is because there was some expectancy that figured out the big dream and longed for it to come true.
This life however is directed by God whose thoughts are not our thoughts. Whose ways are far away from ours like the heaven is from the earth. He says in the holy book that he knows the plans he has for us. So we have to at times relax and believe even when it doesn’t seem practicable in our own ways as he knows the plans he has for us.
Moreover, God uses such chances to uplift us to where he wants us to be.
In the Bible, a story is told of Jacob who went to his father and took the blessings that belonged to him. He faced the consequences of this as Esau went looking for him to kill him. He went and desperately sought employment at the uncle’s place.
However, it is through this chance that he met his two wives and even got a lot of wealth. Sometimes when we think it is over and we are destined to fade out of the good life, God is taking that chance to uplift us.
