When you are going through challenges it's easy to carry a mindset of working hard after the challenges to make things better again. That mindset is good but not good enough! You can carry a better mindset.
While you are waiting for things to change with you or get better, don't put your dream on hold. God wants to show you favour and empowered you amid the challenges!
The children of Israel were in Captivity thinking that God has abandoned them but God told them He plans to prosper them in captivity and that they should get busy with something He can bless. (Jeremiah 29:4-11)
Don't think that the challenges have close up your progress or stop you from enjoying God's amazing blessing! God wants to prosper you amid the challenges and trials!
He wants to show you favour in challenging times. God doesn't have to bring you out from the challenges before you can succeed, He can cause you to succeed amid the trials and challenges before you come out of it.
You may have encountered a slow season and waiting for an open door or meeting the right person, you don't have to wait, use the time to develop yourself, learn new skills, do good to other people and allow yourself to grow in different areas of your life.
Adopt the right mindset amid challenges and trials! Don't allow your vision, dreams or career to be on hold because of your challenging situation. God got your back!
God bless you!
