So we all know the phrase 'wasted opportunity' right, well let's talk hey...
So I realised that in my life I've done a lot of unnecessary waiting. I mean sometimes it's the best option, be patient and trust in God's planning. Other times God will give me something and I'll be like nah nah I don't see a massive arrow sign so it's not a God thing. Looooool I'm looking back now thinking if it was me I'd slap some sense into myself. Isn't it great to have such a patient God.
The best way I can describe this part of my journey is this. It's been like a snowball rolling down the side of a mountain and each time I didn't take advantage of what God had set before me the snowball got even bigger. I've missed out on so any great opportunities from work to minor BANTS to friendships. To me this snowball has hit a rock and crumbled to pieces.
As every person does I've been psycho analysing myself. Just like via Google people can diagnose themselves, through watching the way I act I can be my own psychologist right... In all honesty it boiled down to one thing, FEAR. Fear of the unknown, fear of rejection, fear of not being good enough...
Well this is what I've got to say to you mate "For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline" so to all lingering fear, I got a double edged sword fam. I'm at that point where every time I feel as though I'm about to hold myself back I start singing a song in my head. Recently it's been a loop of 'I'm no longer a slave to fear, for I am a child of God'<- gotta love Bethel hey. I would one hundred percent recommend this. Sing over your situations, speak scripture over them because it really DOES make a difference. Changing your mindset changes how you perceive things which changes how you approach different situations and therefore the outcome. So what it do!
(F)EAR -> don't listen to what/who society says you are, don't listen to what past experiences have labelled you because you know what. You have grown and you have learned and you're way closer to your destination than ever before.
LOVE - peace & all things sugary ✌🏿️
