No matter the pain you feel,
you can't cry a river, so instead of lying there shedding those awful tears,
why not activate that warrior button on your blackberry "BOLD" and
switch the gear a little. It's okay to feel pain but don't get weighed down by
it. Life is all about lessons and how quickly we learn determines the credits
we earn. God does not have time for pity, He's in the business of building
soldiers that are ready to war, you just can't be caught hiding behind the
wall. You are of no use to Him if you can't teach your hands to war, the world
is a battle ground and the strong they say survive.
You can't cry at every gas
life leaks at you, it's either you have your oxygen mask available on standby
or find your way through that crowd quick enough to prevent the teargas from
getting into your eyes, you wouldn't want it disrupting your movement or would
you?. However, pain is meant to be felt and dealt with, they are part of what
defines us, if you've never been heart broken, how would you know how to
cherish one. Life is in stages, a time to learn and a time to share that which
you've learnt and guess my experiences gave birth to this piece. I've had it
worst than you can ever imagine but things wouldn't have been that rough if I
had the privilege you're having reading this today. Back then I questioned
God's love for me because I wondered why He would allow me go through so much
pain, but today I've grown to understand he was actually building me to become
the man I'm fast becoming and the king I was created to eventually be.
Our scars they say remind us
that the past is real and today when I look back am thankful for those times
because they are priceless and they helped define reality for me. Now I can
proudly beat my chest and say to my past that I came, I saw and conquered. You
paved a way for today and tomorrow is right in line preparing for the future.
We are nothing without the pain of the past and as a matter of fact, the most
successful people in the world today had it pretty rough at some point in their
life too. But then, rather than just sit there and question their maker, they
drew out strength from their circumstances, using it as a stepping stone that
motivated them to becoming what they are today.
Truth be told, you can't make
it up there without getting in a ring with your struggles, you just have to be
well prepared to knock them out. Some are extremely determined and end the bout
in the first round while some have to wait for a synonymous call to determine
their faith. By this time, a lot of time and energy has been wasted in the ring
and not forgetting the series of punches that knocked them to the ground. But
then, our fingers are not equal, so whatever situation you find yourself, I
want you to know you're travelling with the map the Lord has specially designed
for your life and nothing associated with your journey was a mistake. The times
you've fallen will determine how strong you'll rise. Life is not mathematics,
the formula you need to adopt might be different from mine.
Never work with another man's
time, even the time zone of some states in the United States differ, talk more
of the world at large. You've been structured specially to meet a set goal and
should work hard each day to know what tariff plan suits that. You can't be a
blogger and activate a five hundred megabyte internet plan for your monthly
subscription, don't limit yourself. Embrace the change and welcome new ideas.
You've got more functions than a game pad so don't be limited to what you see
alone but spend each second trying to unravel the mistery behind that which you
don't see. So I say, rather than water your bed with your tears, why not allow
the pain plant those seed of success and water them to reality. It's pointless
drowning yourself in the river of self pity when new opportunities present
themselves at our feet each day and all we just have to do is brush off the
dust from the last fall and stand again. I repeat, no matter the tears you cry,
you can't cry a river, so when life gives you lemon, why not get a bottle of
vodka and mix it up with some ice.
