I love to make plans and I absolutely love for my plans to go as planned but I will be lying if I say that it has always been this way.
Nope, life always does what it does best. I have experienced many of my plans going the other way which was quite unplanned. When this happens, I tend to become disheartened and my critical thinking ability disappears.
So many times I have had to cry out in exasperation because of the uncertainties that life throws my way. Sometimes I wonder how I am still sane because with all that is going on within and around me, it is enough to simply give up.
The month of January has come to an end and I did something. I took a pen and paper and I began to reflect on how the last thirty-one days has been especially with my finances. I began with the income and as a good economist, I also wrote down my expenses all through the month of January.
I discovered that my expenses was three times my income. I recalled making a strict budget so where and how did those extra expenses creep in from and where did the money come from ...? It surprised me but not too much. I was awed by how much left me financially, yet I didn't sweat nor did I run from door to door.
I defied the odds in January. The month known as long and dryand I didn't even feel the heat. It is not of my doing but that of favour and grace.
This brings me to the song I am sharing with you all. I believe that when we trust God enough He makes a way for us in seemingly impossible situations,just like the lyrics of the song says.
Made a way by Travis Geeene
I'm in awe of the many ways that God comes through for me. It is not just a fanatic statement. God really made a way. Many people that shouted happy new year have passed on. They did not make it to February but here we are and here I am as well because God did it.
Challenges will arise but I stand unfazed as I believe that a way out is certain.
*Happy new month to you all.
Thank you for reading and viewing... Shalom
