Believe

It is important to know that without Faith, the relief from that fear will never end. We have twelve days left for this year to finally come to an end. I know most of us are happy, some grieving, some with worries, everyone with one or two things running through their minds.
I am not left out too. Just last night, I wrote down a note on my cell phone which says “WHY ARE MY PRAYERS NOT ANSWERED YET”. After writing that note, I said a short prayer and I slept. I woke up this morning feeling so good and relieved.
We all go through somethings silently, things we can’t tell anyone closest to us, but we keep the burden at heart, trusting God for a miracle overnight, but then you wake up feeling the same way, that same illness or baggage Is still there but I want you to still believe that miracle still happen. I want you to believe he’s going to do it.

On 31st of December, we all going to church for a cross-over night and we have new prayer points for the coming year but then you feel, what about the ones I prayed last year, I haven’t even gotten a response to it?. My dear, please still pray, the response is still going to come when you least expected. Miracles happen everyday, don’t stop praying!
We all have baggages we pull individually, I’m no angel myself but what I learnt from my mom is never to stop praying and believing he’s going to do it.
Being alive alone is a testimony. Once, there’s life there’s hope. You should thank God for the breath you have, you wake up every day and you could carry your arms and legs, you poo comfortably without being carried around and you say he has forsaken you? Oh no! Your prayers are answered, it just hasn’t manifested yet. Keep believing! Keep pushing!. You will be living on your answered prayers someday, that promotion you want, you’re getting it someday and that financial rest your parents didn’t get at 60, you’ll get it at whatever age you’re praying for and your story is gonna change, just don’t stop believing.

How to believe in God:
1) Having Faith: You’ll find that believing is not by material means but by personal development of spiritual faith, He can be measured by intangible things, like acknowledging his presence, our beliefs, plus our ways and actions.
2) stop trying to control everything: knowing that you are not in control of everything can be empowering. Once we accept that we cannot control everything, we learn to accept things we can control.
3) learning about God: Go to places of worship. Try attending a Jewish, Muslim or Christian service. Listen to the word that the minister, Imam or Pastor is saying and try relating it to your life.
4) Pray and acknowledge God in all you say and do. You may have tough decision ahead of you, try praying for guidance. See what choice you make and observe the outcome. Though things may not end up how you plan, think of this as another opportunity to pray.
5) Don’t think of bad outcome as a result of God not listening or being present, but of his answering your prayer in a way you haven’t considered yet.
In conclusion, I hope we all keep believing and try surrendering your battles to God. You can’t do it all alone, keep believing there’s a supreme one who has the power to turn your sadness to happiness.

It’s a season of love, do good deeds. Try extending your charitable acts to everyday life. Volunteering is both unselfish and generous, but don’t overlook the good things.
Endeavor to be happy throughout the remaining days of the year. It’s time to let go of that anger, that hatred you’ve held for years, it’s time to let go of everything and choose happiness. Create your own happiness. Do whatever makes you happy and stay away from violence.
keep believing! God loves you.
