Urgh.

There’s a lesson here.

There is fruit here.

There is character development, here.

There is healthy habit building here.

There is pain here.

There is uncertainty here.

And there might even be suffering here.

Here is hard.

But, happy, successful future me had to go through here, to get there.

I wish away the days, hoping to get there faster

But lessons will be repeated until learned so wisdom dictates that what I should be doing is not praying and crying and throwing my toys out the cot.

Oh no.

Instead, I should stand ten toes on the ground and learn and do become everything that God intended for me to learn, do and become.

Here is not there, but it is also, good.

Here is yesterday’s there.

Yesterday’s answered prayer.

God.

God is here.

And that is all the reassurance I need that indeed, I will be okay.

Great even, not just good.

Because, God is here.

I know there will be amazing, if I thrive here.

And boy will it be worth it.

I am currently living in an answered prayer and for that I sure am grateful.
