Doubt

Doubt
Like a worm burrowing into the earth,
so is doubt eating deep into the hearts of men.
Doubt you what tomorrow holds,
Anxiety you would have as your best friend!!!

Doubt incapacitates where faith energises.
Doubt holds you in bondage where faith sets you free.
Faith is not the absence of fear, but the mastery of fear!
Doubt you today what tomorrow holds, and tomorrow would be but an illussion!!!

See Clearly with the aids of the Binoculars: So many dreams we have, look impossible to attain because we often times allow doubt into our hearts. So many dreams have been left to die because of doubt. If only we would just believe!! ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE TO HIM WHO BELIEVES!!

Challenges!!!

No matter what you go/ are going through in life, dont give up! The Challenges we face on life's journey is what makes life so interesting. Cut out the challenges and life gets all so boring.

Challenges differ with people. What i consider as a challenge may not be the same for you. But no matter how big or small your challenges may be, it is the necessary spice needed to make life fun!

I often times want to give up in the face of my challenges but the taste and pleasure of victory spurs me on! As i write, i have a million battles and challenges im combating, but thats not enough reason for me to give up on myself! Id keep on moving on because i know that quitters NEVER win and WINNERS never QUIT. My victory and success is just around the corner. I wont stop moving, I wont give up!!

We are all Farmers

The principles of farming is something everybody must learn!!! Often times farmers are looked down upon and little do people understand that they are one of the people we all should learn from.

A farmer understands the principles of sowing and reaping, but little do we. A lot of people most especially christians think sowing is all about giving offerings and giving money in church but it involves much more than that!

A farmer knows that once he plants/ sows a seed he is definitely going to harvest much more than he planted/sowed. Its his joy to plant as he knows his riches lie in what he plants/sows!

Isnt it funny to note that a lot of us fail to recognise that as we live daily we sow seeds and would definitely reap our harvests sometime soon!!! We go about life not realizing that life itself is a fertile ground as we sow various seeds and are bound to reap our harvest!.

If you sow Love into the life of those you meet along your soujourn here on earth you are bound to reap a great harvest of love! If you sow mercy dont you think your harvest of mercy will be bountiful? I could go on and on about the various things we sow as we cast our seeds on life's ground!

From experience i can talk boldly about this as i am yet to smile to a person and get a frown (I actually smile a lot ). When i smile at people, using the principle of the farmer, what i am doing is sowing a smile and guess what? I always (more often than not) get a smile back. Therefore the principle of sowing cannot be ignored as we live our lives.

Whatsoever you do to your neighbour can be regarded as sowing and you are bound to reap a bountiful harvest of whatever it is you have sown into that person's life!

See Clearly With The Aid of the Binoculars: Be careful what you sow as you are bound to harvest much more than you plant. Learn from the farmers and work hard at planting the right seeds you would be happy to harvest!

Discipline

Its 5:30am in the morning and i know i need to get up, (i pinch myself severally) get up girl ! get up!!, i tell myself. I open my eyes and Oh my gosh!!! my eyes are no longer obeying me, they close back and i drift into another session of sleep.

I get a very good book to read, I start and feel like i wont stop reading until i get to the last page but after a few days of so much struggle i put an end to my reading and spend my free/spare time doing what?!!!!!!!!!!!! (search me, I dont really know). I stopped reading a book that would have helped me gain more knowledge on some issues of life.

I look in the mirror and tell myself " you need to form the habbit of exercising" it sounds so good to me and i draw up a plan, (I just cant seem to find the plan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). I bet you know what that means.......... (i didn't get to use it).

I get some money and i tell myself "girl you need to save or invest in some stuff. At that point when i'm layig up plans to do something productive with the money, I impulsively buy something i never planned to buy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

I could go on and on about the numerous things i planned to do but didnt get to do. I know a lot of you are at this point or may have passed this stage ( if u have passed this stage, why dont u post a commment on how u did it) Share with others who read this blog!!

Discipline is the key to getting out of this situation. Do what you have to do when you have to do it without procastinating. Discipline acccording to the Websters Dictionary can be defined as "training to improve strength or self-control" . To be successful in life we all have to exercise self control which in other words is discipline.

See Clearly with the aid of the Binoculars: You can be all you want to be provided you exercise self control and disciplne.

We Can't Keep Running Away

No body was born without a responsibility or assignment. We've all got one thing or the other we're destined to do. Some people are making impact in life while some are not. Those who are not making any impact have chosen not to. So many people have passed through life, but only a tiny fraction of those who have moved to the other side made and are still making impact in this world.(people like Mother Theresa would forever be remembered though she's moved on and yet she is still making impact in life,likewise Martin Luther King) while some one like Joseph Blue(who is that?!!!!!) cannot be remembered by anybody because he didnt affect any life before passing on.

You may be wondering "who gives two hoots?" well i do and so does your creator! We cant keep running away from that which we have been called to do. I cannot afford to leave this world without being remembered for something positive. There are so many things around us that are calling for a change, if we open our eyes and our hearts we would see them and contribute our own quota .

My country NIGERIA calls for a change and i have made up my mind to contribute positively to changing her for the better. I have decided to make it my responsibility. If we both decide to make a positive impact in changing my beloved country Nigeria don't you think the upcoming generation would have some thing to thank God for?

We cant keep running away from our responsibility. If we dont do what we can and push it unto others to do, that means we are depriving generations yet unborn of what they should enjoy and give praise to God for.( Imagine if Martin Luther King hadnt made it his responsibility to fight for the liberation of Black Americans, wouldnt they still be under humilation now?).

See Clearly with the aid of the Binoculars: You Can't keep running away,take up your responsibility and contribute your own quota in making this World a better place. (Nigerians reading this, Dont run away from your own country,contribute your own quota too and let the upcoming generation have something to praise God for.
