My alarm clock rings incessantly. Half-asleep, I’m confronted by the cold reality! I want to get back to the world of dreams as quickly as possible. Still groggy, unmotivated and with my eyes barely open, I drag myself into the bathroom. Do scenes like this sound familiar to you?

For over two years, that was my morning routine. Every day I battled against negative thoughts. I wanted to overcome them.
At that time, I felt completely out of place at work. However, when I laid my dilemma before God, I experienced His help. Looking back, I can see His wonderful plan in it.

Are you currently in a similar situation? Do you feel you’re in the wrong place? Is this perhaps a time when you can learn something important? Trust your Creator. He knows you inside out.

so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience

Colossians 1,10-11

At just the right moment, he’ll show you the next step. Stay patient in his presence. He’ll reward you for it every day with renewed strength.

How are you getting on with being patient?
