NO does not always mean NO !

The “no's” in life redirect you toward your destiny!

How many times have you heard “No” to one of your requests since you were born? It's impossible to answer that question precisely, isn't it? Whether it's you or me, we've both had negative responses many times in life, regardless of the area.

Depending on the timing or the type of response we expected, or even the hope we had placed in those responses, the impact on us has varied.

I mean, depending on the expectations we had placed in that response, it may have affected us with varying degrees of intensity.

What if I told you that in reality... THE ANSWER NO DOES NOT EXIST IN LIFE?

I'm going to use a concept to explain what I mean.

Usually, when you study, at the end of a term there is what is known as a student ranking, in short, students are given grades and ranked “in order of merit,” as they say. I say “as they say” because, in my opinion, it's all relative and doesn't really mean much in the end.

Sometimes, some people even go so far as to label others as unintelligent, untalented, or even “stupid,” which is the absolute worst in my opinion.

No one is unintelligent, no one is untalented, no one is stupid! Once again, it's all a matter of perspective, as I like to say.

God, the Creator, created each and every one of us. How could such a perfect God create an imperfect creature? It doesn't make sense.

GOD always has a plan that is beyond your understanding!

There is no one who is not gifted; there are only people who have not yet found their path, that is, their calling.

A bird is made to fly and a fish to swim, but if we put a bird in water, what will happen?

That being said, we can now get to our topic.

I said earlier that NO does not always mean NO, but if we look closely, NO means YES BUT...

NO can therefore have several interpretations:

• NO = Not yet, not now.
• NO = Not in that form, but differently.
• NO = Not that, but better than what you have in mind.

Often, we are discouraged by negative responses. We feel like our world is falling apart, but as difficult as these negative responses may be to take, I want to tell you that God always has a plan that is beyond your understanding.

Often, NO will lead us to a redirection toward our true path in life, our true destiny.

Let's take two (2) examples:

• The case of the resurrection of Lazarus, who had died in John 11. According to the story, Jesus, his friend, almost delayed coming when he was informed of the situation. God's plan was for Lazarus to experience something even better than healing: resurrection!
• The case of Abraham and Sarah, to whom God had promised a child, and not just any child, but no sign of one on the horizon for a long time until Isaac was born, as we read in Genesis.

Sometimes we have professional, family, or marriage plans, and we cannot conceive of anything else. This is often very difficult to accept, but if we persevere in faith with the idea that God is never wrong and wants what is best for us, in the end, we will witness His goodness and infinite wisdom because He sees much, much further than we do.

Hang in there, God has not forgotten you! As long as you still wake up every morning, His plan for you is still in motion. Just a little patience and you will see...

See you soon
