Dear Woman, What Are You Searching For?

We are all on a journey in life. Everyone has one aim or focus or vision or a goal. There’s something we are living for at every particular point in our life. It is towards this thing that we invest our time, our energies and our whole life. Today, I want you to ask yourself the importance of what you are searching for. How relevant is to to your life and society? How is it important?

At every stage in life, your life will be driven by this thing you are searching for. Remember, as you dedicate all your time and energy searching for it, you are sidelining most of the other things that are also important in life. So, what you are searching for must be very important and a priority in the scheme of things in your life. If your whole goal at this time in your life, is to gain some material possessions, it means everything you do is geared towards that. Someone would want to achieve that before they continue schooling etc. If your goal is to get married, you may have put on hold other aspects of your life so you achieve this task before proceeding, so all your energies, prayers etc will be on this. Someone may also be searching for extreme wealth and would do all she can to get it, whether she must be a side chick etc she doesn’t mind.

So, what are you searching for? Think about it again. Is that what is really important to you now? And most importantly, is that what God wants for you at this point in your life? I believe God has assigned times and seasons to everyone. It’s very important you align to his will, because when one time or season passes, you will be living in confusion. Example, if it’s time for you to be sowing seeds and you are busily tilling the ground, when the rains assigned to water your seeds come, you will now be planting and will miss the purpose of the rain at that time which was to help your seed grow. You will have to wait till another season of rain for your seed to germinate

This is when you begin to feel, you are behind in life. Because you missed the timings and seasons of God. Life is lived once, and it’s very fleeting. Don’t waste your days and time searching for wrong things at the wrong

time. You need to align your life to God and pray at all times. Weigh the things you are so engrossed in finding at this time in your life and ask God, is this thing worth all the energy I’m putting into it? Is it important at this time in my life? What season is this?

Don’t waste your time and life searching for things which won’t add unto your life. And don’t begin to search for things because others are searching for them. Everyone has a different path in life. Your friend getting married at 25years doesn’t mean your must also get married at that time. Your season may be after 30years. People getting married at 30years doesn’t mean you must also let good guys go and wait till you are 30years. Someone going ahead to do their masters right after degree doesn’t mean that’s your life order, you may have to gain some work experience before you go ahead with yours. So, never pursue things or search for things because of how someone’s clock is ticking. Everyone has their own clock in life. Even twins are not born at the same time and don’t die at the same time. Your clock is different, your life is different. It’s ok to admire or aspire and add unto your life, but find your own clock and path in life and live according to your seasons.

Dear Woman, May what you you are searching for at this time in your life be truly what you need to find now. May you not miss your times and seasons and live in a confused future.
