TIME AND PURPOSE.
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
Greetings Beautiful Mummies.
I thank God for the privilege of waking up to a purpose. We were created differently in looks, skills, abilities, quotient and aspirations for a reason.
Many years ago, a preacher once told us how he had always had 5.0 CPGA in his result. He even told us the least CGPA he ever had was 4.3 in one of the semesters he wasn't serious. Many of us went home sober wishing we were him. At the time, he had won so many accolades, awards, handshakes and VC's dinner.
It wasn't up to a month, when another preacher came and preached to us about uniqueness and purpose. He highlighted the fact that if God created everyone a hunter,
who would prepare the spoil?
Who would clean up the dishes?
Who would even make the hunting implements?
Who would make the pot for which to cook the meat?
He warned us never to mock God's thoughtfulness by wishing to be another, because we do not have any idea of what was written concerning him Or her.
A year later, a shocking news came about the demise of the preacher whose high-flying academic prowess distinguished him.
God is a God of purpose. He did not make a mistake when He made you.
He didn't make any mistakes when you were born into that family, married that man, bore those kids, got that kind of job, has those malicious colleagues etc.
It wasn't in error. He expects you to bear His kind of fruits and let the fruits abide.
You live everyday for a purpose, Discover it and achieve it.
God is not mindful of people who waste His good resources of life,time and material resources on frivolities and unseriousness. He would not honour you or crown your efforts if you sit around, blaming him for not making you Dangote's wife, Bill Gate's daughter or Buhari's special adviser.
What kind of fruit are you bearing?
When someone goes to the great beyond, I hear appendages to the funeral, 'It is not how long, but how well.'
Well is talking about impact.
Well is talking about good deeds.
Well is talking about the lives you touched and those moments someone smiled because of you.
Well is talking about that niche you were able to create that added value to lives, yours inclusive.
Are you redundant without bearing at all?
Are your fruits sour and smelly?
You have the opportunity to help and cheer someone with kind words, good gifts, good thoughts, positive wishes, forgiveness and candid advice.
Sometimes it is about what money can buy. But most times it is not about what money can buy.
Sometimes it may be greatly appreciated, sometimes It might not be appreciated, but you prolong your life by so doing.
A Chinese adage says 'THE best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, but the next best time to do so is today.'
Wake up and pick up your purpose.
Your time on planet earth cannot be complete and your story cannot have a happy ending if you do not discover your purpose.
