WHY DOES WHAT YOU WANT NEVER HAPPEN

Are you waiting for the tooth fairy? Try to make the change you want to happen

Some things will just happen and some things won’t happen unless you make them happen. Many people go about their lives in the following way: “If it’s meant to happen, it will happen”. But, let’s understand what happens in reality.

God’s Word shows us that certain things are predetermined and we have no power over them. Death, for example, cannot be avoided. Of course, you can speed up this process (some take their lives, some are careless about their health and some live dangerously). Another example: this Earth is going to burn. This is a fact. Maybe, you don’t want to talk about it, because you are afraid of death due to not having communion with God. But God left everything written so that His servants would not be taken by surprise. So certain things will happen as they should.

But there are other things where you can’t have that attitude of “it is, what it is”, otherwise, you won’t achieve anything in life. Yeah, many things in our lives are dependent on what we create and make happen. So, if you want, for example, a change in your financial situation, it’s no use getting up every morning for that job of yours that pays the same salary as usual and hoping that this will change your financial situation in a year. Because you are not doing anything different. You have to bring about the changes that you want. It doesn’t matter how small the step I might take may be.

Change scares, and brings fear and insecurity. Many people prefer known discomfort to unknown discomfort. How many people don’t know how bad their situation is? Because they are used to that situation. And so many people never change their lives. They rely on luck, on fate. But know that you can make what you want. What have you been doing to have your communion with God, for example? Have you talked to Him today? Forget what you can’t change, you can change your attitudes, choices and habits. It’s much better to live believing that you can make it happen than believing that “it is, what it is”. Watch this message in full in the video above and think about it.
