“God did not reveal His plan to you so that you will anxiously be asking Him, because, by nature, God is love and He wants you to be close to Him for His will to be done in your life.

“He said, all that come to me, I will not drive them away and none will be lost; so, you are the only person who can truncate God’s plan for you.

“Focus on seeking God and doing His will while on earth,”
