There are many among us whom God does not promote in this world—not because He does not love us, but because He knows that promotion in this life could lead to pride, self-reliance, or a distraction from His eternal purposes. God’s timing and plan for our growth often involve waiting and humility, as He seeks to prepare us spiritually, build our character, and protect us from the dangers of seeking glory in our own strength. Ultimately, His desire is for us to depend on Him and align with His will—not for our own advancement, but for His glory and the service of others.
