God removes things that we are heavily dependent on, or the things we look up to, such as idols. He loves us and he wants the best for us. He prunes us just to make sure we bear good fruits in season or out of season. He does not want us to depend on anyone else or anything that is not him.
Therefore, friend, do not be attached to anything that does not add any value to your life. Do not make your job, your children or your husband your idols. God should always be number one.
Positions and titles are not important. God can take positions and titles away from people to bring them close to him. Do not let anything override or take your relationship with God. Be it pain, suffering, lack, plenty and comfortable things or revenge.
Let us not spend time on unnecessary things. Ask God to help you decide on the necessary things to spend your time on.
2 Peter 1:3-4 (New King James Version)
"... as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust."
Always remember Philippians 4:8(New King James Version)
Meditate on These Things
8 "Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things."
O! Stay blessed till next time.
