Good day, friends🏞. In life, we have to trust the process. The road is sometimes curvy and not straight. There are obstacles and lots of opposition. But if you keep the faith, you will get through it and rise like the sun☀️. You will understand that what’s happening is often happening to you and for no other reason than the fact that you belong to the Lord. It’ll pass. They say. But life is not meant to be one of convenience. It’s intended to be one of persistence and faith. Those who seek convenience want an easy life. There’s no such thing. Standing up for who you are and what you believe in may cause division. But I’d rather be true to myself than cave in. I’d rather stand up for what’s right and be alone than go with the flow. Be real with who you are. Be who God would want you to be. Let your light shine because anyone in denial of a creator is in denial of themself. Anyone in denial of the fact that they are less than perfect is in denial of the Lord. He came here for this very purpose. We are not supposed to fight our battles or make it alone.

“If life was 1 smooth road every individual would be a success story
in life’s history;
yet life is akin to a highway with twists and turns,
only those who can navagate with precision by adjusting are successful.”
