God's delays are not God's denials ♥



It felt like a never ending cold and dark tunnel. With the loud bangs of thunder storm, murmurs, passing cars, and all those terrible noises. I shouted, but I can’t hear myself.


Sometimes, we feel like all that’s happening now is completely non sense. That we’re going nowhere, that we are stagnant. But indeed, Faith will work.


If there’s one thing I am most thankful about my 20th year; it’s the never ending personal tunnel I passed through. That season frustrated me so bad, that I had to ask myself what’s this all about. It thought me how to be patient, and keep believing in His promises more than I ever trusted Him. I learned that those terrible days didn’t just happen to slap me down with failures and rejections; but to teach me the important lessons of waiting and endurance. I learned that there are just things that won’t work out the way I badly want them to be just because, there’s a perfect timing for everything (God’s timing). And You gotta trust Him, coz’ "You can't connect the dots looking forward; You can only connect them looking backwards" (Steve Jobs).



And Yes, God's delays are not God's denials ♥

CHANGE.


Change. Hereclitus of Ephesus once said that, There is Nothing Permanent Except for Change. And I'm sure that majority will attest and nod to it. 

People change. Things change. People grows up, grows old. Wiser and Firmer. And so sometimes, that takes toll on our relationships, any type of relationship.

It's hard when that someone who's so close, dear and important to you has chosen to live and travel the longer path - without you.

You have to deal with it, you have to accept and let that person go, even if it means "you, waiting in the very exact spot for an unknown period of time". You cannot tell him to cut and abandon his dreams. You can't hold his hands and tell him to be happy with what you both have. You can't cover his eyes and say, this is everything you need, we need - this is enough. You can't sit him down and explain him what you are seeing. You can't deprive that special person from his ambitions and priorities. You can't ask him and beg him to stay, if he wishes to travel the world. 

Because that person deserves a life of his own. A life where he could do whatever he wanted to do, to be free, to fly and soar, to catch his own fate. 

And everything that's left for you, which you can do is simply - Let that person. And Wait, if you wish to.
