"Sometimes God says no because he knows that the things your
heart desires could eventually break you. The people you deeply need could be
the ones who will let you down in every possible way. The ones who will change
the way you think about people or about love or the ones who will close your
heart off and make you question yourself.
Sometimes God says no because he wants to teach you the importance
of patience, of learning how to value things that others take for granted or
learning how to stand on your own feet so you can take care of others when they
fall or take care of yourself when the people you need are no longer around
you.
Sometimes God says no because he knows that if he says yes, you
won’t grow up with the same wisdom, strength, perseverance and resilience you
have today. You won’t be the best version of yourself if you didn’t have things
in your life that forced you to face certain fears, heal certain wounds and
overcome certain challenges. You won’t be the person who appreciates good
people and knows how to stand up to others when they cross the line.
Sometimes God says no because he wants you to delve deeper into
faith, into understanding the universe, into believing in him even if you don’t
always agree or understand why he does things the way he does. Sometimes he
says no because he wants you to probe further into your life, ask hard
questions, rethink your decisions or just explore whether the things you’re
praying for are good for you or maybe you’re just in love with the illusion of
things.
Sometimes God says no because he wants to bless you with far
better things than what you’re asking for. Sometimes his no is a big ‘hell
yes’ in disguise. Sometimes his no is a ‘wait
for it’ wonderful surprise about to unfold. Sometimes his no is more
of a ‘not right now’ than a complete no.
Sometimes his no is just a delayed yes but what I know for sure is that his
unanswered prayers, his NOs are
just another way of blessing you whether by removing something that would have
been toxic for you or waiting to bless you with something far beyond what you
ever imagined.
And sometimes God’s no is his way of saying ‘I
love you’ and that’s why I’m protecting you from what you cannot
see."
