TIME IS NOT IN A HURRY - Elvira Jordan



TIME IS NOT IN A HURRY - Elvira Jordan

Good Morning Beloved!

Have you ever been late for work or an event and you’re trying to meet up by doing everything in a hurry? You will see that as you’re trying to comb your hair in a hurry, the brush will fall off a couple of times for you to pick it up and continue. You may wear your jacket the wrong way and be forced to take it off and wear it again. All this will make you late the more. We must have experienced this one way or the other.

Yesterday, I realized that we have just 4 months till the end of the year and I just shrugged it off because even though the year ran fast, “What Will Be Will Be”. 

This realization may be triggering for some people, especially those who have grandeur plans for the year, lists of achievements, things they want to accomplish in 2025 and things like that. If you haven’t done what you think you need to do, the rush of the year may actually mess with your mind, making you feel like you’re being left behind. 

When hurry and rush sets in, times will seem short, not enough or against you.

I have never been one bothered by time and timelines. Since I understood the illusion of time, I never worry about missing out on any day or any year. I just flow with the world, living one day at a time, doing what is necessary and accepting every outcome as what it ought to be.

Time is actually very valuable but not so important. It helps us to organize our life and purpose, yet it is not a fundamental construct of our reality.

I will simply explain this with that saying “watched kettles never boil”. Have you noticed that when you are anxiously waiting for something to happen, time becomes very slow: then when you’re not expecting anything, just neutral, or avoiding a certain situation, the time will speed up like 5 hours in one day.

This is to tell you that our lives and our timelines are just an interpretation of what our brain thinks the world should be. This plays out in our memories and expectations.

When you look above the time constraint, you will see that the world is just there. Time is just there. It is you who is in a hurry. It is you who sees a new day. It is you who feel the time running out. It is you who think that time is not enough when in reality, everyday is just thesame, moving at same speed for everyone.

This brings us to the understanding that God is not in a hurry. The Universe is not in a hurry. We are the ones mounting pressure on ourselves to achieve everything today. We need the money today today. Our marriage must happen today today. We must have the fruit of the womb today today, we must graduate today today or tomorrow will be too late.

It is this mindset that keeps us anxiously at the edge of our seats; wasting away our time on expectations that mask the true journey and experience of getting the things that we want.

Take that pressure off your mind and you will see that as long as you put in effort to do what you need to do at the right time, everything just flows. When you keep postponing, taking anxious steps, wasting away in memories and expectations, it will always seem like time is against you when time in reality, time is your friend.

This also brings me to let you know that there’s no right or wrong time for anything, but there’s an appropriate time. You have the power and will to decide when that appropriate time will be.

Everything we want is already with us. God has already made everything available. It can never be too late or too early because it is already there in the supernatural plains. However, you have the power to decide when and how it comes to you. 

Slow down and just live your life. Do what you need to do. Focus on the present. Be the best version of yourself and everything will align when it needs to align.

This is a really deep concept that will take an inner soul alignment to understand. As you go about your day today, ponder on these words. 

BIBLE VERSE: 2 Peter 3:8

But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

PRAYER: Dear Lord, today I rise above anything within my mind that limits me from being that which You have destined me to be. I ask for Excellence, Success and Fulfillment in all that I do today. Amen 🙏🏽

Do have a Blessed Monday and a Successful Week ahead.

DREAMS AND VISIONS ARE FREE - Elvira Jordan

DREAMS AND VISIONS ARE FREE - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved 😊 A few days ago, I stumbled on a video where Apostle Femi Lazarus spoke about “Seeing” and it inspired my message today. Even as a child, I have always lived in a fantasy world and sometimes I feel like I take the fantasy thing too far because at some point, everything around me could be on fire and I will just create an alternate reality in my head where I am dancing in the snows. Everyone else could be worried or fearful about a dire situation and I will just picture  the best possible outcome of that situation and allow myself to remain there, while others bugger their minds off on how serious the matter is. Some people have always seen my view as “Toxic Positivity” and that has never been a problem to me. There are times when I would agree that I took the dreaming thing too far, but more often than not, it was the ideal thing for me because while others are worked up over the situation and worried sick about a p...

Tackling Violence and Criminality in the Niger Delta with Television Designed Content; A SEARCH Initiative

In a bid to tackle violence and criminality in the Niger Delta, Search for Common Ground and its consortium of partners have introduced several components that examine the role of the government and government institutions, security agencies, community representatives, civil society organizations and the media, to foster an inclusive approach in creating a new face for the Niger Delta. Due to its wealth in natural resources, the need for resource control has generated decades long battle that have defaced the oil rich region, even as the communities and people of the Niger Delta strive towards peaceful coexistence, to drive peace and progress in the region. For this cause, SEARCH in collaboration with Foundation for Partnership in the Niger Delta (PIND) and Stakeholders Democracy Network (SDN) embarked on a peace building project which was funded by the European Union with the theme, “A Community Centered Approach To Transforming Violence And Criminality In The Niger Delta” which...
