[While taking a walk under the Eucalyptus trees reading the Book of Revelations, beautiful thoughts fill my mind.]
Our lives come to full fruition when we seek to glorify God and stop doing things for our personal gain or to please men.
It has been the desire of God since eternity to eternity for men to glorify Him. He will not rest until He gains our hearts. To love Him is to glorify Him.
At the early age of 24, I realized that I cannot depend my happiness on men. Men live under the fallen state, and are bound to disappoint me. I should lean my understanding and heart towards God, and work hard for His dream which is also my dream and happiness.
I cannot put my expectations on men. To expect others to change for my happiness would be unfair for them. I can only accept them for who they are and love them. This shall be done under the motivation of glorifying His name.
What will I render the Lord when I see Him? Will I be able to say: "You have given me much, and I have given you also much in return. I cast my crown before You". Or will I be ashamed and say: "I'm sorry, Lord. I did not trust in Your promise and ran away. My life was a waste because of my lack of faith".
We are accountable before God and not before men. Keep that in mind and you will live your life differently.
Selah
