LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE

'Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” Genesis 1:26 (NKJV)

 

What is that adventure you want to go on? What is that qualification you want to get? What is that new skill you want to acquire? What is that business you want to launch? Whatever your desire is, you don't need to wait until you are married to pursue it! God made YOU with a purpose, and you are on this earth to fulfil it! Romans 14:12 says that each of us will give a personal account of ourselves to God. Right now, are you using the talents, time and resources God gave you wisely? Waiting on God for your life partner does not mean you should put your life on hold. Every day is filled with great ideas and possibilities. Treasure it and make the most of each moment. 

Making a decision to live your life to the fullest also challenges you to develop yourself. I always told myself this, and now I always tell singles: add to yourself. Add value to yourself by working hard, staying focused and being diligent in all things. By the time you meet your spouse, the experience and lessons you gathered will add value to that relationship (of course, there will always be a need for growth and learning at every stage of life). How rich and fulfilling would a relationship be if two people come together after having prepared themselves for the commitment that marriage demands, and developed themselves individually? Imagine if every single person educated themselves in their field of interest, practiced patience and contentment within their friendship groups, pursued the things they loved, and worked hard to create honest wealth? They would set themselves up for, and attract more fulfilling and fruitful relationships. And it's never too late to redeem the time and live to the fullest. No matter how old you are or where you are, there is no time like the present to make the most of what you have! 

JOURNAL:

What is that thing you want to do? Can you develop yourself enough to accomplish it? What do you want your marriage and home to look like? Can you start working on yourself and on relationships around you as you wait on God?
