A Journey, not a Shortcut Spiritual growth is not instant—it is a lifelong journey of becoming more like Christ. In a world that celebrates speed, success, and shortcuts, God invites us into something deeper: transformation. This transformation doesn't happen overnight. It unfolds slowly, often in ways we don’t understand, through trials, waiting seasons, and daily surrender. You may desire a house, a spouse, a business, or a breakthrough—but the Bible reminds us in Matthew 6:33 to seek first the Kingdom of God. Everything else will follow in God’s perfect timing. Moses spent 80 years in preparation for just 40 years of leadership. That means if your process feels long, you're in excellent company. God is not slow—He's thorough. Write It Down—Your Journey Matters Part of maturing spiritually is learning to journal your journey. Don't just live through your experiences—reflect on them. Keep a record of what God is teaching you. These insights are not only for your future but may one day guide others too. Perseverance Has Purpose Most importantly, be patient with the process. As James 1:4 declares, “Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” Trials, delays, and even losses often serve a divine purpose. Whether it’s a divorce, a business failure, loneliness, or the loss of something seemingly small—none of it is wasted. These are not mere delays; they are divine stages in your transformation. Christlikeness Is the Goal Christlikeness is the destination. Not fame. Not fortune. Not applause. God's greatest goal is that you become like Jesus. That journey is marked by worship, fellowship, discipleship, and day-by-day surrender. He is not after how fast you run, but how well you finish. So, don’t drift—keep moving forward. Hebrews 2:1 warns us not to lose grip on what we’ve heard. Drifting doesn’t come from rebellion, but from neglect. When progress feels slow, remember Habakkuk 2:3: “Though the vision tarries, wait for it; it will surely come.” Delay is not denial. The Night Is Almost Over The darkness around you may seem thick, but the night is almost over (Romans 13:12). The armour of light is ready for those who endure. Rise. Wake up. Don’t quit. To those closest to me—my family, my friends—please be patient with me. God is still working on me. I am not yet complete. I am still becoming. Even the snail reached the ark. Every small step forward counts in the eyes of God. You Are Not Too Late And so, to you reading this: You are not too late. You are not too broken. You are not too far behind. You are exactly where God can begin His deepest work in you. The Final Encouragement Stay faithful. Stay patient. Stay hungry. Because spiritual maturity takes time. And God always finishes what He starts.
