RE: Wrestling with Worry

in Emotions & Feelings11 months ago

Good morning, Princess. Now, I have a lot to say. Let me start by saying that I woke up this morning to engage on Hive, and your post is the third post I’d be reading today. I’m so glad I came across this post.

Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act. He will bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday- Psalm 37:4-7.

Trust your creator and he shall direct your steps, Princess. I know you do trust him, and I want you to keep your faith intact. Your emotions are valid. We are humans and sometimes it is okay to worry about our lives.

Before gaining admission to the university, I had always wanted to study Law. I performed well in my Jamb, Waec, and Jupeb exams. In Nigeria, some courses are not recommended due to limited job opportunities after graduation. People often advise against pursuing certain courses if you want to secure a job after school. Law is considered a viable option in Nigeria, so I decided to pursue it. Unfortunately, things didn't work out as planned.

I almost gave up, Princess. For days, I was sad. Every day, I’d go online and read about people who studied my course- I found out so many of them are roaming the streets, Jobless. But as time went on, I sat down and analyzed my whole life. I concluded that even though Nigeria is not favorable, I have my plans. Big plans. And the most reassuring part is that my Lord has my back. He will guide my steps. Surely, good things shall lol follow me.

Princess, it is okay to feel worried, but I assure you that you’ll figure everything out.

Good luck, ma.
Have a great day.🌹🌹🌹

Fortunately, I was reading my morning devotion today and saw the exact phrase and I am more strong to keep holding onto God's promises and trusting Him. Favour, thanks for adding your experience too and I appreciate it so much. 😊 God will help us all.
