Happily Ever After

A friend once asked when it could be said that one is either happy or sad, and in response I had this to say.
________________________________________________________

Happiness ������ isn't a thing that happens down the road, or a mood that comes once in a while. It is an active sense of feeling������, borne out of the in-depth knowledge of self. You're either happy or you're not������, there's no in-betweens.

When a large part of your emotions is spent waiting �� for the occurrence of an event to propel you into the realm of pure bliss, then you might have just lost ������the meaning of happiness and true rest.
At this point, it could be said that you aren't living maximally������, and what you have termed happiness could be likened to a boss, who's never satisfied and would always have so many more tasks to 'dish-out' in order for you to grow wit to execute just another one -a tail of an insatiable desire������.

Happiness is discovering who you are, it is finding your heart, loving yourself, expressing the joy garnered inside-out, and offering the same measure of gifts acquired unto others, regardless of who deserves what or not ������

By so doing, you'd have gained mastery over your mind and obtained pure happiness������.

Therefore, regardless of your thought-pattern or belief, make a decision to not wait for anyone or events before you choose to be happy����������.

...then and only then can you live happily ever after...

Set-Time

Let us ask ourselves these questions:


  • Is there a set-time for specific events in life?
  • And if there is, can it be influenced positively or negatively by our human contributions?


John 2:1-4

God works with order, structure, and capacity-building. If you don't grow beyond where you're in your mind, the set-time will not come and you'll be disappointed. Not only that, you would disappoint the world around you.

If you don't have the capacity to handle the sensitive issues, God will not bring them along your way. And it would appear as though your time isn't arrived.
There are certain things that God wants you to do in certain jurisdiction in your life. If you do not develop the capacity necessary to help you make your GIFTS a "ministry", then there is a concrete chance that those gifts will be developed by another and the returns attached to them be taken by such person.

Acts 6:1-7, talked specifically about three things "A problem" "A group of people who deliberated among themselves to proffer solution to the problem " and "a group of seven (7) who had developed themselves ahead of time". This clearly shows how preparation meets opportunity and creates room for an appointment.

The bible as a guild for our lives revealed the most important thing necessary for a successful life. And practical examples to how successful the strategy works.
It is but no doubt that this works, and to arriving in your "appointed time", you need to build capacity and thirst for increment... For even when it was not yet time for Jesus' work, He still did miracles. And this happened not by chance but because he had already gone through the wilderness and overcome diverse temptations.

Get through your wilderness and have your time arrive !!!
