If you are faithful to be a good steward over what God has placed in your hands today, he will continue to place more things in your hand. It is hard to be fruitful when you spend your life scrolling through everyone else’s life. It is hard to be fruitful when you spend your life competing with others. It is hard to be fruitful when you constantly compare your life with someone else’s. It is hard to be fruitful if you spend your life wishing you had another life. It is hard to be fruitful when you do not put your hand to your plough because you don’t like the one you have. It is hard to be fruitful if you are constantly complaining, cynical or discontent. The only way to live the life and purpose God has for you, is to actually start living your life. Today is a good day to stop wishing for another life, begin living your life. If you are faithful with what God has placed in your hands now, God will be able to trust you with what’s in your heart later. Trust him. He is faithful.
