Today a model is happy because God has been faithful. Yesterday I was so sad and depressed and unable to do anything. It was so overwhelming.
I thought about all the things I need that I can't get, debts I need to pay, my next meal, how much I long to live a comfortable life, how much I'm working hard but the results I'm getting doesn't measure up to my efforts and I was just crying.
I spoke to a course mate yesterday and shared my plight concerning my studies. I've been neglecting it, it's been hard to read and I thought he could motivate me too. Sadly, he shared his own struggles with me and I even forgot about my own troubles and began to pray with him and encourage him.
The whole thing was very funny to me when I finished. Imagine feeling like you're dying and you rushed to another person for help but you find out that someone else is going through much difficulties compared to you.
On today's service, we didn't do much of a long sermon. We in the Redeemed Christian Church of God had a thanksgiving service on behalf of the General Overseer of RCCG, pastor E. A Adeboye as he clocked age 80 few days ago. After thanking God for His servant, the pastor led us to thank God for his faithfulness and he said something that struck me.
He said in life, humans naturally lack satisfaction. We always have a long list of things we want. Even when God makes provision for them, we quickly present another one.
This made me evaluate myself, I felt terrible because looking at my life today, I'm in a much better place compared to before and that's worth being grateful for.
The life I'm living right now is the life another person is praying to live. Even though I'm hoping to be in a much better place, I should never stop being grateful for where I am right now.
David, The Psalmist says "bless The Lord o my soul, bless His holy name. Bless The Lord o my soul and forget not all His benefits".
Whenever we expect from God we should not cease to be grateful for all he's been doing while expecting that which is yet to come.
I want to say a big thank you to the friends who reached out and encouraged me. Special thanks to 
Happy Lord's day everyone, remember to stay grateful.🥰
