“Money never forgets where it has been”
Grace M
A very good friend of mine recently uttered these words to me, and it totally blew my mind. Because I wasn’t expecting it, the truth behind it got me after an hour. I started to think about those people who once tasted the joy of success and wealth, only to meet with the bitterness of poverty, bankruptcy and catastrophe soon after that.
Our God is a strategic and a brilliant designer, your destiny was beautifully crafted by an awesome designer. Our end was finished before we began...God knew our everyday before you were even formed in your mother’s womb. It is an absolute phenomenon how He created the universe— every situation we go through, no matter how painful, carries in it the valuable lesson to develop our character. Each and every one of us was created for a purpose established in heaven.
Failure has a funny way of discouraging us; it has got a way of making us feel incompetent, useless and with no means to amount to anything. The truth my friend is, you are God’s solution to the world, its not about how many times you failed but its about how long you stayed down. Failure is a friend you will meet on your way to success, and he is evidence that you are on the right path.
I got a revelation a while back, God said to me “It takes money to build wealth but it takes ME time to build a man”. The painful situations of life plays a pivotal role in shaping our character, life’s experiences are ideal to ensure that our talents and gifts never take us where our character wont keep us. We need character if we are to sustain the financial power that God is shifting on your side today.
You might have fallen dismally; life has thrown lemons your way. You didn’t expect the fall to be so painful but let me tell you my friend, life happened and you failed- but what have you learned?—let go and let God. Let him take you through every step without skipping any step, with time you will develop the character that will keep you when money begins to call you daddy/mommy.
