Process is never an easy word but once we get an understanding of the essence of it, I believe that, many more people will yield to their process instead of rushing to their finish line. Process is a journey between where you are and where you are going. Where do you want to go? What is your dream? What are your goals? Are you going through a process right now that seems so long and arduous? Or does yours look like a dead end with no hope in sight? I encourage you to stay the course and don't give up. A friend of mine once told me that, "The time of preparation is never wasted", I am a living witness to that statement.
Taking short cuts will bring you unnecessary burdens and heartaches, don't take them. Go through your process whatever that is. It is tempting to want to get to your goal faster and quicker without going through the normal process, before you fall into that temptation, don't forget that, everything in life has its consequences, we will all bear the consequences of the choices we make.
I understand that, the time of process can be trying in most cases but if we trust God and keep our eyes on the end result, we will go through it with positive expectation. One thing that, continues to help me in my journey is my personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It has made many process periods that would have been otherwise difficult and unbearable, easy to go through. I do not deny the fact that, I was uncomfortable, I was pressed on every side, broken and discouraged. I even felt pain & heartaches some times but I always came out victorious. What was it? What kept me going? What brought me out of many dark holes? I call it the grace of God. The unexplainable grace of God. It gives you wings to fly, it carries you when you are too weak to stand, it holds your hand and walks with you on treacherous paths. The tangible grace of God. I discovered through my relationship with God that, I can not live without His grace if I must thrive in this life and finish strong. The Bible says in 2Corinthians 12:9; "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." This verse of scripture became a revelation to me and a vehicle in which I ride. Processes for different things in our lives will occur as long as we are in this world. This lets me know that, grace is like my oxygen provided by my Source, Jesus Christ Himself.
I encourage you not to cut corners, go through your process because when it is all said and done, you will be grateful for it. If your process seems really tasking and hard, may be you feel stretched to the limit, I invite you to ask for the grace of God, it is available to everyone who asks through Jesus Christ. It is free and abundant in measure, you have everything to gain when you walk in this grace. I tap into it daily to get through the day, it is available to you too. Ask for it.

Remember, process is a journey, not a destination, if you go through it, you will come out stronger and better, hold on to God's unchanging hands, He will never leave nor forsake you.
