Blessings beloved friend,
Welcome! Here is where we come to glean essential truths for purposeful living. Please be sure to drop your comments as you share your thoughts with me and others in this community.
The word of life and encouragement for today is #NoPressure! What is pressure though?
Pressure is defined as a continuous physical force exerted on or against an object by something in contact with it. It is the use of persuasion or intimidation to make someone do something.
So, we are already in the second half of the epic year 2020 and it is a good time for you and I dear friend to reflect and see how we can get better and do better without the external pressure from around us but to move with those Godly pressures in us! Now there is good pressure and there is bad pressure. Good it is when you give yourself reasonable and challenging timelines because you have deliverables that you can and must accomplish. Pressure is bad however when you begin to compare your results to your neighbour’s. Remember GOD’s word in 2 Corinthians 10:12b “…but they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.”
My dear friend, in order for us to get the right balance, we must actively and deliberately pause to reflect on where we have been, where we presently are and where we want to be in a future time and space. Scripture says in Matthew 7:14(AM Translation)
“But small is the gate and narrow and difficult to travel is the path that leads the way to [everlasting] life, and there are few who find it.
So, your results may not necessarily come from those bogus tasks you set yourself on but they will surely come as you tune in to the Holy Spirit and silence every external pressure coming from the noise all around you.
My prayer for you today, may you find your own right way (to navigate this second half of 2020) tailored by GOD for you. Amen.
I toast to a second half of 2020 filled with heart-gladdening results for you and I.
I love and honour you!
