Patience and wisdom

Happy Sunday to every one of us reading this, today being the 5th of June is the first Sunday of this month, so it is assumed to be a praise Sunday everywhere and if it wasn't, I want to believe it was still great.

I was watching a video some weeks back and it came to my mind this afternoon and was reminiscing about the deep meaning and I could deduce that we need patience but not patiently alone, it should go along with wisdom. What do I mean by this, let's go;

In the video, there were two men stuck in a deep dug. They were stuck in a different place but in exactly the same deep dug and they could not find a way to move out from it. In that hole that they were, there was a tree in there but was very dry and has no branches of trees on it. The sun came on them and heated them, they were both patients and didn't complain but were praying for a way out of that dug.

Their prayer was "God, please save me from this dug that I found myself" and as God will answer their prayer, the cloud changed and everywhere was cloudy before they knew it, it began to rain heavily. After the rain stopped, the sun start to shine and the tree begin to grow branches. The tree grew very well and it has a lot of branches and it seems God is not answering their prayer with all that. They kept praying and suddenly a huge thunderstruck and part of the tree fell to the ground.

But something happened, the first person could think and discover that it was an answered prayer, he took the fallen trees and construct a ladder out of them and was able to get out of the dug. The second person couldn't find a way out of what happened instead he murmured and started hissing at what God did. Could you believe that was where he was till hunger killed him? He died there cos he wasn't wise enough with his patience.

The second person wasn't just patient only but was wise while patient. This is what many of us need to know, if at all we are praying to God for a particular thing, we should be wise about it. God doesn't work with the human plan most times because our plan seems not to work out. God's plan is the best and for this, we shouldn't expect God to work like a human, we should be sensitive about every move during our prayer.

We need to apply wisdom to everything that comes our way, and see positivity at every chance. It's fine if he thinks God will send someone to pass where he was to come to help him out of the dug and since that didn't happen, did he later think again and think of another way? He didn't rather he began to murmur and feel reluctant to try another thing.

In everything we do, let's endeavour to apply wisdom, we shouldn't just act for acting sake. While waiting patiently around that your tight corner for God, let's be wise about it. We should open our eyes and brain to opportunities beyond just human thinking.

I will put a stop here and I am sure we all understood all that I have written so far. Thanks for reading, I really appreciate your effort in doing that.

Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
