MY SOURCE OF ENCOURAGEMENT

There were times in my life when I felt like everything was falling apart when nothing I tried seemed to work, when doors closed in my face, and when the people I thought would support me suddenly disappeared. I used to cry myself to sleep, wondering if God had forgotten me.

But looking back now, I realize that those moments were not the end of my story, they were simply chapters of the process. The job I lost made room for something better. The heartbreak I went through taught me self-worth. The delay I faced was actually God’s protection from what wasn’t meant for me.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: the process may not make sense while you’re in it, but prayer has a way of carrying you through. Sometimes, answers don’t come instantly, but prayer strengthens your heart while you wait. And then one day, you’ll look back and realize that everything you went through was building the version of you that was strong enough to handle the blessing.

So, when life feels heavy, don’t give up. Trust the process. Keep praying. Because prayer works not just by changing your situation, but by changing you while you wait for the situation to change.
