Sentiments apart; Face D Truth
Sometimes I really get tired of the whole cycle….I’d like to be alone in some very far place…fulfilling purpose….just alone…that’s some lame tot I know…because how exactly do you fulfil purpose alone? Sometimes I wish I did not have to work, like I could sleep and wake up and still get paid, but there’s the question of passion and purpose?
I have worked in 4 different organisations and I have come to a suggestive conclusion that more than half the people I have met do not have an idea of what they want. I find myself being a little retreated about so many things, the cycle that makes you hustle like everybody else; which of course is the deception that every generation has fallen into and the generations to come will likewise fall into. Then they’ll work and work and never get anything…Though life isn’t all about the getting.
You wonder why you have to earn less than some people, work more than some people. Being conservative in our dreams, ability, imaginations and declarations is what most of us call humility; yet many people suffer and yet know the scriptures…didn’t his word say 2Peter1:3 “According as his divine power hath given unto us all that pertains to life and godliness…..” Am not being greedy, I guess am being a little more ambitious. If my dad ever gets to read this post he would be so proud of me. My friend says I am being greedy in a positive way**Greed or Greediness **we weren’t born to count the bridges or traffic lights….we were born to be lights ourselves and bridges in our generation.
I’ve had a really amazing past 8 months. I joined a New coy; with more responsibilities , I grew older by another year, new relationships ……Et al. like am more aware of responsibilities that living demands. I’ve done more logical thinking this year than ever before. I have thought from the Spiritual all the way to the Physical.
Yes humans are emotional beings, but most humans are sentimental and live sentimentally, and also try to be sentimental in their relationship with God. If we’ll just sit down and be strategic about how we live, about want we want, about how we want to be. If we think science has all the answers: that I suppose is a big mistake; because every human is in charge of whatever it is they become. We can’t blame the government or our families nor can we blame our spouses….I was asking a friend what the difference between giving and saving was and how you balance both…at a point I found out I had given even my savings and had nothing left…and could not borrow (I’m lending to nations not borrowing**winks**)…and nobody will give you, even when they know you don’t have, except the few that Love you..Esp. when you had removed your eyes for them..even at that, they won’t borrow you an eye for a second. This I concluded required wisdom and strategy.
Leaving your footprint in the sand of time is not something you stumble into, fulfilling destiny is not some spiritual magic that happens. The one who designed purpose planned and you’ve got to follow his plan and be proactive to get it done. I think the only way out is to think of the end first and then set out to work towards the end, with the picture of the end constantly in mind. It’s a very terrible experience if a man has to look back at some point in his life and be full of regrets; Spiritually, Physically, Martially, Financially, Et al. It’s not just enough to dream, it’s more important to have a picture and be strategic in everything …as little as what one eats and wears, giving and saving as well.
Jesus knew what the plan was when coming to the world and followed it to the letters, even when it felt hard, we are told that he wept and his sweat was as thick as blood….he knew the scriptures...and could have said Mathew26:41“……..the spirit is willing and the flesh is weak” but he didn’t say that… (Some Christians quote scriptures to make excuses).
What am I saying; enough of all the sentiments, enough of all the charade, the most important thing is you (As selfish as it sounds) when I say you it’s not about what you can get, but what you can give and still be able to smile and quote like Paul. 2Tim4:7 “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith…”you don’t want to be dead before fulfilling purpose, or get broke and not be able to lend to the nations**winks**

Nice.... but TRUE!!!
