💡 MY ADVICE: DON’T CHOOSE COMFORT AT THE AGE OF LABOUR
My beloved friend,
listen carefully — this is the voice of wisdom speaking to your heart.
Do not choose comfort at the age of labour, so that you will not be forced to labour at the age of comfort. Every season God gives you has a divine purpose. The season of youth, strength, and energy is the season to plant, to build, and to prepare. It is the time to discipline yourself, to develop your gifts, and to labour faithfully in what God has placed in your hands.
If you spend this season chasing ease, pleasure, or shortcuts, you will find that when others are resting in their harvest, you are still struggling to sow. I did not design life to reward laziness but diligence. Those who rise early, who seek wisdom, who labour in their purpose, will enjoy peace and comfort in due time.
I want you to understand that comfort is not wrong, but it must come in its appointed season. Rest is sweet when it follows responsibility. Success is satisfying when it follows sacrifice. But if you avoid the fire of discipline now, you will later face the fire of regret.
So, my friend, wake up! Don’t waste your strength on distractions. Don’t trade your purpose for temporary pleasure. Use your youthful years wisely—pray deeply, learn diligently, work faithfully, and grow intentionally. These are the seeds that will create the harvest of comfort tomorrow.
> Proverbs 10:4 (KJV) – “He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.”
Ecclesiastes 9:10 (KJV) – “Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might…”
The time to work is now. The time to build is now. The time to sow is now. Refuse to be lazy when others are labouring. Refuse to sleep when destiny is calling. For the day will come when you will sit in comfort—because you chose diligence when it mattered most.
The Lord your God will bless the works of your hands. If you labour in your season of strength, He will give you rest in your season of glory. Your harvest will come, and it will not delay.
