So the best way to start this piece is confusing but I will start. Read this as if I’m talking to you. If you ever heard my voice, read with my voice. If you have never heard me speak, read with the kind of voice you think I have.
Sometime ago, I ran into a bit of ‘interesting times’ in business. I was drained in all ways, and that is an understatement. Maybe I should confess that it affected my writing too. I could not really sit and think straight or string words together anymore.
A life that shows promise was now really struggling to fulfil potential. I didn’t weather the storm. NO, I DIDN’T! God gave me the most solid support systems anyone can ever wish for – a wife, siblings and parents and a family that are not even the typical in-laws.
The reasons, people, factors, conditions and what have you are not necessary here. Can’t be dwelling on the past. The result however was that I was left neck deep in debt and there was no way out.
That led me to other indebtedness as I needed to get by on a daily.
I prayed for a miracle! Of course I needed one, or many. A day to the end of the year, the biggest miracle of my year happened. Okay scratch that so it can look more sensational. I got a mail on the 30th of December!
I was asking for something smaller. God was sorting something HOOOGE!
Essence of this is to tell you not to lose hope. God is never late, even if He seems late.
Mine was a a year ender in 2019, yours can be same, or even be your new year opener. Just be expectant!
And when it happens, don’t dwell on it too much. Revel in it for a while. Celebrate your win, your ‘miracle’; then face the next challenge.
Congrats on the end of 2021.
