CRISIS PROOF YOUR FAMILY: CONTENTMENT

There are blessings and lessons in every phase of life, if we are patient enough to locate them.
One thing many of us don’t do is maximize the various phases of life. Too many are eager to move on to the next thing without getting anything tangible from where we are now. “This can’t wait” mindset often breeds discontentment and robs us of the joys in the current season. Those specific blessings/lessons can’t be gotten at any other time than where we are now! These are things that will help you in seasons to come. Don’t be that single individual who is eager to get married, that you waste this precious season of life that should push you deeper into your purpose. Don’t be that husband who can’t wait for his wife to “behave” herself before you do your part. Instead, be deliberate about provoking positive changes in her. Don’t be that wife who despises her husband for not living up to his responsibilities, so you’re just waiting and waiting for him to change. Ask God to show you how to be the helper you were created to be. Don’t make the enemy make you focus on the wrong things.
Each season, even in marriage is for our learning and growth! Don’t be a parent who is eager to be free from your child. Instead of thinking of when it’s time to go back to school or leave your house, cherish the moments you have and use it as opportunity to teach them everything they need to be sound emotionally, spiritually,etc.
They won’t wait for you; they keep growing whether you maximize their time with you or not.
From your academics, to career, to business, whatever you do, every season counts; none should be taken for granted and none should be despised. If you don’t learn to enjoy where you are on the way to where you’re going, you’ll be miserable and pass that spirit of misery to those around you! Be positively expectant about the next phase of your life but don’t loose sight of what God intends for you, right where you are now. Kemi oyedepo.
