Dear You,
I see you. I see the hustle, the long nights, the endless plans, and the relentless drive to achieve your goals. I see your desire to build a life of wealth, meet societal expectations, and secure a glorious future for yourself and your loved ones.
I know how important it is to grow, to achieve everything you have dreamed of, and to silence the doubts and fears that sometimes creep in. But let me ask you, at what cost?
I know the year hasn’t gone as planned. Your goals and visions seem farther away than ever, and the temptation to cut corners or manipulate your way into success is growing stronger. The pressure is mounting, and the harsh economy is only making things worse. Voices whisper to you, offering shortcuts and compromises.
But I am here to remind you of something critical: in all your striving, do not ignore the GOD FACTOR.
When God is left out of your plans, no matter how hard you work, you will struggle. And even if you gain temporary success, it may come at a cost too great to bear. Life is not meant to be a constant battle against the tide. Remember the timeless truth: “No man can do this except God be with him.”
True success is not achieved by manipulation, shortcuts, or compromise. It is achieved through divine partnership. When you walk with God, your efforts are multiplied, your path is guided, and your outcomes are supernatural.

Dear You, life is not about struggling alone. When you carry God along in your journey, something incredible happens. You begin to manifest at levels beyond human comprehension. You operate in wisdom, favor, and strength that surpasses your peers. Your productivity becomes tenfold, not because of your abilities alone, but because of divine grace at work in your life.
The confusion you feel, the doubts, and the uncertainty? They stem from neglecting the one place where answers abound: the presence of God. When was the last time you truly sought Him? When was the last time you opened the Scriptures or spent meaningful time in prayer, laying your plans and fears before Him?
………………………………………………
Dear You, I urge you: return to the secret place. That quiet space where you commune with God, refuel your spirit, and gain clarity for the road ahead. It is there that your vision will become clear, your strength will be renewed, and your path will align with His perfect will.
The secret place is not just a refuge; it’s a launchpad for greatness. Go there. Refuel. Pray. Listen. Then return to the work at hand, and you will find that the doors you once struggled to open will swing wide before you.
…………………………………………………
Dear You, you are not alone, and you are not without hope. The God who created you has a plan for you—a plan for good and not for harm, to give you a future and a hope. Your success is already assured when you place your trust in Him.
