Wait for your BOILING POINT.

A few days back I was trying to heat up some water for tea and at some point I got impatient waiting for the water to boil and decided to increase the flame the more but I noticed that no matter what I did, the water was only hot and making some sound but wasn't boiling and at a point I gave up trying to fast forward the process. After a few minutes it suddenly began to boil and I was able to make my tea. While busy trying to fast forward the process of making the water boil at my own timing , a thought flashed through my mind that water does have a specific boiling point and if the temperature doesn't reach that specific point it would not boil no matter what I did.
It became a food for thought for me a I drank that tea.

Life generally is divided into times and seasons and no matter what you do, you cannot jump or try to 'cheat on' the process of going from one season to the next. You have to

go through it. Sometimes we try to do all we can to fast forward our lives from the current season we are in to the next without necessarily wanting to through the process because most times it appears time wasting and maybe tiring and sometimes even difficult.

It is human not to want to wait for anything but have it at the snap of the finger especially in this age we are in of instant everything. But the normal course of life from birth to death clearly shows us that our lives are in seasons and stages and we will have to go through each before we can reach the next.

Is there any area of your life where you feel things are kinda slow even with all the efforts you seem to be putting in? Maybe it's a time or a season of just quiet waiting for you before you're launched into your next level. Chew the tablet of patience and wait for your BOILING POINT because it will surely come IF YOU DON'T GIVE UP!
