IN THE PROCESS OF TIME

-

The fact that time flies fast doesn't mean that the Lessons that comes with Time should fly off.

You must have been stuck in traffic at a particular point in your life, especially if you reside in Lagos.

I've heard stories of passengers and motorists being stuck in traffic for hours (I mean total stand-still). I felt they exaggerated sometimes until I had a first-hand experience.

I was on my way to visit a particular friend of mine, where I was headed to shouldn't take me more than 25 minutes maximum, but unfortunately I ended up spending 2hours 30minutes on a journey of 25minutes. But that's part of the price you pay to get the prize in Lagos. 

While stuck in traffic I was always checking my wristwatch so as to know what time it was. My wrist would have screamed at the top of its voice if it could do that day.

The gridlock defied all odds that day, including my Driver's tenacious effort. I figured out there was nothing I could do, so I enjoyed the gridlock as it was part of the process.

Little by little, the traffic began to move and unwind even though it looked like forever. Then suddenly it became totally free and the journey ahead became so smooth and seamless.

Surprisingly I forgot about my experience in the gridlock within minutes, the smooth traffic and fresh air made me forget about the amount of time I'd spent in the traffic.

In Life we'd be posed with different challenges and situations, but the truth remains that these moment of trials will be forgotten once breakthrough steps into the scene, all that matters then won't be the amount of years spent but the peace and tranquility that you experience upon the arrival breakthrough.

It's the same way a pregnant woman forgets the pains of childbirth when she hears the cries of her little Child. 

She immediately forgets the ordeals of childbirth as they've been replaced with the joy, love, and peace her child brings.

It might not look like it yet, but stay determined to scale through as it's just a matter of time (Psalms 30:5).

Do well to stay optimistic as it's all but a matter of time.

Stay energized to move forward.

YOU NECESSARILY DON'T HAVE TO QUIT;ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TO STEP UP YOUR COMPANY GAME.

I woke up one beautiful morning feeling all energized to do some cleaning, after cleaning I went further to burn some old stuffs that weren’t in use any longer. I arranged them in such a way that they’ll get burnt easily, I poured kerosene on them and set them ablaze thinking everything was going to get burnt in a couple of minutes. To my amazement I saw that only few parts of what I was burning had flames on it, I tried my best in spreading the flames evenly on all the stuffs that was meant to be burnt with the aid of a large stick. Alas, it didn’t work out and I almost got my fingers burnt during the whole process, I was still looking at the other parts that lacked flame disappointedly when a very strong wind blew the flames from the burning objects to the remaining objects that were void of flame. You really needed to see the smile on my face as I watched the flames spread evenly in a matter of seconds, the other parts that were struggling to burn began to burn with ease. Th

SPEAKING TRACKS

It was a very beautiful and cool morning, it rained overnight so i decided to maximize the cool of the day by going on a prayer walk (you’ll should try this often as it clears the mind and rids one of reasonable distractions) that fateful morning. During the course of my  prayers I asked the Holy Ghost for my next post on the blog as I didn’t know what to post and the weekend kept on drawing nigh, I didn’t hear anything for close to a minute but I was wise enough to still wait amidst his silence. Out of the silence came a voice that said look down, I looked down immediately because my head was held up high. All I saw were tyre tracks made by different cars, tricycles, motorcycles and bicycles, I asked myself what tyre tracks has got to do with my next post. He then began to expound it in my heart (you sincerely needed to see the spark of light in my eyes), the tyre TRACKS I saw differed distinctly from each other; some were smooth, rough, bent, straight, zig-zag all according to th

THERE’S A PLACE FOR EVERYONE

-
Isn’t it Amazing to know that there’s a place for everyone? That we’re all Humans doesn’t mean we are all called to do the same thing. Some people even feel threatened and insecure when they see people close to them make progress in what they do, and as a result of this they venture into the same thing without minding if that’s what they’re supposed to do or not. If only we know that though the Fish, Toad and Crocodile reside in the river together. The fish can’t thrive outside the water like the Crocodile or the Toad would, due to the fact that the other species are amphibians. Trouble arises whenever the Fish jumps out of the water, thinking it’ll THRIVE like the Crocodile and Toad. The Fish isn’t wired like them, it isn’t designed to THRIVE OUTSIDE WATER. In the same context we are all wired differently by our Maker, we are called to do mind blowing things in diverse ways. I know you might be tempted to say I know of A and B that do the same thing and blossom together, but the truth
