Walking the path by submission

Image
Everyone has a path properly designed by God to follow. On a regular, God reveals this path to us so that we will have an idea of what he really wants us to do or where he wants us to be. When you are bothered about going where others are going or doing what others are doing, you will definitely miss your own spectacular path. Are you aware that not everyone will go through the same path. But if you are concerned and truly engrossed in knowing the exact thing your father in heaven wants you to do or achieve; you will not struggle at all and at the same time, you will not be moved by any discouragement what so ever rather you will move with your head high  because all that matters is the superior word. (Given by God). As a child all I always wanted was to do things the right way. I hated being scolded. I didn't like it when they said I didn't failed. This made me to always do what I had to do as soon as I could. In primary school days, as soon as I reached home, I would q...

The fate of Mr Godson (part 1)

Image
Mrs Kate was having dinner with her daughter when the news headline popped up. Nora shouted, 'mum look! It has happened. Mrs Kate quickly wiped her eyes to be sure that the was not daydreaming and she ran very close to the screen shouting ' Ah! mogbe! This is really happening. Thank you Jesus. Our enemies have finally been put to shame'. Eh! Eh! (she sang, dancing continuously as she carried her plate into the kitchen. It all begun on the 23rd Of December where Mr Godson drove to the mall to get some things for the Christmas celebration including the fireworks that they would use when they travel. As soon as he reached the parking lot, three hefty  men approached him and asked him to enter the van that they came with. Mr Godson, still confused about the whole matter asked " what for? And by the way who are you guys? The 1st man: you're still here asking silly questions,  I see you don't like your life". As soon as he finished saying these words h...

Time -an essence

Image
What would you do if everything you planned for didn't come out the way you planned it. What if you have stipulated your time for a particular purpose and something else that was not budgeted for consumes your time. Are there times when we get so upset that we have wasted our time doing nothing when we actually planned to use it wisely? Many people have goals but if you just stop at setting goals without further reviewing it,  then we may never know what exactly is taking our time and may never set things right. A very wise man, king Solomon said "there is time for everything under the sun!" Your success can be achieved by the little steps you take daily. You may not see it immediately but when you are consistent and determined, you will see the result in due time. Time is a very essential element in achieving goals. When you plan for something, try as much as possible to follow that plan. Well, if something beyond your control happens and clashes with your plan, the...

The super endowment

Image
Whether the weather is soothing or not, I choose not to complain! When I don't see the result of my labour,  I choose to keep waiting! If I am misunderstood by my words, I decide to explain clearer! When I don't get it right, I humble myself to be corrected! When I don't know what to do, I choose to pray! Even when I know I ought to have attained a height and it's not visible yet I choose to praise. You know why? That's because I believe it is on the way! In whatever that comes your way, you have a great super power which is choice! Decide how you want to perceive things in life Decide how you want to nuture it. We all are called to be great. The question now is whether we are on the high way or low way to greatness. Decide you must see that greatness realised.

The endless journey

Image
Life is filled with stages. These stages are so many that after you finish a stage, you begin another. For instance, while growing up as children, all we wanted or were bothered with were our toys, cartoons, etc. We never bothered whether our parents had the money to supply those things for us instead we just threw our demands at them whether it was while shopping or when we go to the play park and so on. Children don't want to know whether things are tight or not. It's not even their concern. What they are thinking is not what their parents are thinking. All they want is that flashy thing that caught their attention while shopping and they only want to see that their demand is met and peradventure that demand is not met, it becomes a challenge and they will want to tear the house apart with their scream or will even want to make a scene in public; just as a kid I saw in the mall some day had to make a scene all because he wanted a mash mellow and his mum already got a couple o...

Right thought- Right sight

Sometimes, being silent in a situation helps you think thoroughly before acting. We know most times when we feel bad we want to pour it all out, either to someone around us or to the person who did the wrong, perhaps adding some extra stories to it or saying it without being conscious of our choice of words. But what if we pause, analyse it, go through every single action that led to it and then decide how to handle it. Sometimes we engage in rash thinking and do some things that are not intended, or even speak things ought not to have been said.  Let's not forget that one way or the other, our actions are affected by someone else. We tend to ignore this almost every time by using the common phrase, "pouring out my mind".  Words are quite powerful, the person that hurt you might not intend so, whomever you might have shared it with might not really have a solution to give and it will end up accumulating in the third party's mind. Thinking before reacting goes a ...
