Somebody asked me why it took so long for me to get married. Likewise, it took five long years for me to be permanent in my teaching profession. The kind of life I have before is far more different from now. I have no love life and my financial status was also in shambles. I feel miserable at that time thinking that my life is falling apart.
But as I learned to surrender everything to God and started to walk in His faith, everything turned out to be a great blessing for me. I became permanent in my teaching profession. I am now married to a loving and wonderful husband. I also learned to manage my finances and started to stay out of debt.
These are just some of my countless blessings from God. I know that He will continue to bless our dreams for His greater purpose in our lives. How can I be so happy for being one of God’s witnesses that “He has made everything beautiful in His time” [Ecclesiastes 3:11]. Trully, he will give what is best for us if we know how to wait and put our trust in Him even at the hardest times.
