Who are you planning to touch or help within the next three months? If you will become a person who has a heart for the less fortunate; God will step out of his throne to help you and bring you out of any difficult situation.

One of the things they taught us in  Mechanical engineering class is to use the right tool for the right job. Some of the reasons were; it could cost you more of your time to get the job done, or you could even hurt yourself. In other words when a wrong tool is used for a wrong job; it becomes a struggle. Each tool is designed for a certain purpose and if it is not used where it should function; vulnerability marks its course. We are no different to a tool designed by God for a certain purpose. Now the main question is, "how do I find out what my calling in life is?" Now many studies have been conducted and a number of personality tests have been designed to help guide people in order to find out which careers could be suitable for them,  nevertheless, with all that, some people still find themselves unfulfilled in their careers. They find no meaning in what they do. The right place to find out might not be in the books or seminars, but, in your mind. Your mind carries a...
