It's About You, Not About Them

Every now and then, God will intentionally present unusual people into your life who will elicit undesirable behavior in you. When you interact with these people you sometimes respond in a way that you are not proud of.

When we encounter such people we have two choices to choose from; the easy road or the rocky road. Whichever path one chooses will determine whether they progress to the next level of life or they don't. The easy road oftentimes looks alluring and the rocky road is despised for its uneasiness.

When we cut these people off, we choose an easy road. It's easy to cut people off, but sometimes the relief is only for a moment. Sooner or later you will meet the same people again and again until you have learned what God wants you to learn from them.

When we do an introspection we prove to be authentic people who are open for growth. We prove to be people who are willing to grow and become better. People who understand that it's not always about the others but about them. They understand that God is also interested in seeing them grow.

Yeah , I Tried...!

So there I was, you know, trying to convince God that I wasn't the right person for his blessing, I didn't deserve his favor and whatever that he thought I could become. I gave him all the reasons why I wasn't the best; I told him about my insecurities, my worst background that I don't even tell other people about. O, did he forget that I messed up where I ran away from? I told him all these to convince him that I was not the right person he can use! Seeing that nothing I said could convince him; I said to him, ok God but at least I'm satisfied with where I am. Everybody is good around me in fact I even have children and they are all happy here! Even though I had graduated with many degrees in Egypt but hey, I couldn't convince God not to bless me. Like Moses, in the above conversation;"How many times do we try and convince God that he cannot use us for great things? How many times do we believe our backgrounds, mistakes and insecurities when they tell us t...

This is another level of life.

When Jane, a twelve year old girl would cry in order for her mother to pay close attention to her; Joane (Jane's mother) would quickly attend to her, pampering and tapping lightly on her back with massaging strokes of her hand. At that young age, Jane enjoyed this experience so much such that it became her normal. However, as she grew older, she noticed that her mother had changed her response towards her. She then realized that she had to do something different in order to regain her mother's attention... One of the obstacle that stands on our way or delays us from getting to another level of life is to try and solve today's problem with yesterday's formula. Just because a certain method worked wonders on yesterday's problem, does not necessarily mean that it can work on today's problem. Joshua understood this very clearly at the face of the raging river Jordan that was at a flooding stage. Instead of using the staff of Moses that parted the red see; Jo...
