Present Suffering : Future Glory

Rom 8:18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

Every day, time or let me passing moment is a training, straining, spraining or the death of something we love to do, hold or cherish. Everyone has a story to tell thier children but the question is how true is the story you will tell them?

The greatest gift you can give posterity is the story of how ashes became golden dust in your life.

Pain is temporary and eventually it will subside and something else will take it's place.

Most people quit when suffering comes out in their lives. When you quit however you give up your ability to handle greatness.

I love you so I cannot keep the truth from you. God has planned for this to come your way.

Pressure makes diamonds, fire reveals the lustre of gold, the suffering of Jesus, finally caught up in Glory.

Pain will always come once a while. It's not nice, no it's not palatable. Do you remember when you stepped on fire as a child? You danced to unheard music. You licked your fingers when there wasn't honey, milk or sugar.

You kept walking around and you keep cooking food by that same heat produced by fire.

You don't wanna talk about it, hey, I feel you. But please I have an announcement for you quitters never win and........ Never quit.

Be like a wall clock, it takes a kicking and keeps on ticking. Any situation that gave you great pain told there's something better than this.

If you must cry now do, he jilted you, I get it, she left me for my friend. Aha! Excuse me for this S**T HAPPENS. And life must go on. The greatest pain births unmatched glory

Keep moving, when you cry remember we use water to wash the windshield of a car so you can see right

Jesus said rise take thy bed and walk. What is keeping you at one place? Get up and understand this direct that feeling of pain right back and keep moving forward.

She's mean, he's wicked, this too shall pass. No pain will stay forever. I dare you to take some pain and grow with it. A friend told me that he used to be lashed 20 strokes if he made a mistake as a house boy at a time it was nothing to him.

When your cross is too heavy, wait until you make it to throne and receive your crown. Jesus Christ is the best description.

Pain will go away and glory will follow.

Seed Time and Harvest Time

Gen 8:22 "As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease."

Success is the product of repeated practice. Many young people today want to get what it took someone many years of perspiration and frustrating failures, disappointed investments, betrayed business deals. You never reap anymore than what you put in yesterday.

The natural law of labour and success is SEEDTIME AND HARVEST TIME.

We live in a fast food, fast internet cafe, instant passport pictures, all is fast connection, instant that etc. By this we are disillusioned to think that life is also like that.

Sorry! You have dialed a wrong with that idea. Great businesses, happy families, successful academic life, great ministries are built over time.

As you put I little conscious inputs of money, prayers, change, commitment, savings, learning, forgiveness etc. Life will take it's turn in time to play back what you have put in.

Your life now is a result of what you have put into it some years ago. You have been given grace, mercy, love, blessings and countless opportunities to change the world starting with your immediate circle of influence.

I didn't grow around my parents. I spoke to my dad four times. People tried to push me around and get along with their own agenda. I refused to give up. It was not easy. I cried, hungered. Slept in a cinema, worked in a corn mill, carried concrete etc. I refused to let it stop my dream. The last I saw him it was at the morgue. It's not easy to find out who, why, where, what, and how all the time. Some things you will NEVER UNDERSTAND.

But choose daily to sow the right thing now. The tommorow you saw yesterday will become today over time. Sow your field and keep sowing the time will come to you.

You will make mistakes. Yeah, You will be hungry some time not forever. This too shall pass. Keep moving just don't stop trying an an living.

Keep working, the lady you will marry, the house will be built or bought, the business will flourish, the family will take shape, the degree will become a degree, keep studying, the hospital, hostel or the church will be famous, keep sowing those dresses-Your harvest is coming soon.

It's seed time and harvest time. God is waiting for you at the finish line. I am also walking on the road.

Keep sowing the good seeds no matter how small.

Ready, Aim, Fire!
Eccl. 3:11

Many people are so much captured by fear of failure. Well fail is an abbreviation for First Attempts In Life.

No matter how right or great a vision is. You have to start and you cannot start big. It happens only in movies. The longest movie cannot even span 24 hours.

Many people rehearse over months before they get anything done. So will you. You need not sit and wait for some big moment.

Instead of aiming and aiming and aiming. Fire from where you are now toward the dream vision or goal. A teacher is not made in the Education College. A doctor is not made from medical school. They Start from the creche and keep accumulating knowledge, skill, passion, change, etc. until they graduate from training school.

In the college of life. You start small and later in life it boomerangs back to you. Aha! Like 6:38, Gal. 6:7-8.

Did you read this. Go get a Bible and read read. You sow small today, anKle tomorrow and wow.

The tomorrow you saw yesterday will be today. Give small amount of what skill, talent or grace you have and tomorrow night you will sleep smiling.

Stone by Stone, layer upon layer, precepts upon precepts. Line upon line. The house will be built, the rent will be paid, the mortgage will be cleared. The degree will be gained and the job will be secured.

You may Start from the basement and get to a skyscraper. It's in your hands now. God is waiting.

Little drops of water, money, etc....... Mighty..........
Ready! Aim and 💣
