Nollywood actress and filmmaker Mary Njoku has shared a message about disappointments.
On her Instagram page, she said sometimes what feels like a disappointment is actually God’s way of leading us to something far better.
Njoku wrote a heartfelt note to her Maker, expressing gratitude for the gift of life, His mercy, protection, faithfulness, and unfailing love. She also appreciated Him for carrying her through every season, for every breath, every lesson, every victory, and every setback.
“Sometimes, what feels like a disappointment is actually God’s way of leading us to something far better. May every disappointment in our lives be trained into a divine blessing, in Jesus’s name. Amen.
Today, my heart is filled with gratitude. Lord, thank you for the gift of life. Thank you for your mercy, your protection, your faithfulness and your unfailing love.
Thank you for carrying me through every season, especially the ones I never thought I would survive. Thank you for every breath, every lesson, every victory, and even every setback that has shaped me”.
Some time back, she had sent a message to the public urging them not to be ungrateful when God sends one a helper. Mary warned them against turning divine assistance into a subscription.
In a previous post, she advised the public against praying for people God is trying to punish. She told them to be wary of who they pray for, as sometimes one is trying to bless someone God is trying to punish. She admonished them to be wise and discerning, as not every struggle is a battle they’re meant to fight.
Mary Njoku had shared a word of wisdom against pressure. She noted that when one has some fame or a little money, the world suddenly starts telling them how they should live their life. Njoku advised against listening to them, noting that the same people will turn on one when everything goes wrong and the lights go out.
In an Instagram post, Jason Njoku’s wife admonished the public to stop outsourcing their happiness, to love themselves, to never place the responsibility for happiness on someone else, and to always put themselves first. She noted how life is short.
Last year, Mary had advocated for furthering one’s knowledge, stating that we are never too wise to learn, as no one knows it all. She further stated that there is more to see, understand, and become, as the world is vast. She admonished the public not to let their success become a ceiling but a stepping stone.
The wife of the Iroko TV boss had raised a rhetorical question to the public. She questioned why we are alive, why we are still breathing, and what our purpose is on earth.
