PAIN —108

This is real, and I need to talk about it. Everyone experiences some form of pain in life. While they say “no pain, no gain,” at times, the pain can be so intense that there may not be words to describe it. There are various types of pain. There is the pain of discipline, growth, birth, breakthrough, and break forth, but the most excruciating is the pain of transition.

The most frustrating scenario in life occurs when you’ve toiled, yet the person you’re grooming as your successor has a different vision, passion, energy, and understanding of life.

Then the pain of transitioning steps in, infiltrating your vision, home, and life, making you accommodate this visitor unwillingly. Unexpectedly, you find yourself living with strangers, and life becomes daily misery.

What should you do? The answer: nothing, because pain is inevitable. But trust God that you receive instruction on what to do and not to do. On this note, here are 5 life nuggets:

  1. Those avoiding right actions will soon regret it.
  2. If you neglect doing what’s right, you won’t achieve your desires.
  3. Disregarding good counsel leads to your downfall.
  4. Choosing life’s path without guidance will wastes your existence.
  5. Anytime you contribute to someone else’s pain you have automatic open your life to pain.

What to do in pain? Consider these 5 points:

  1. Entrust your worries to God.
  2. Seek guidance from God.
  3. Communicate with your successor.
  4. Liberate yourself.
  5. Pray earnestly.

Sometimes pain draws us closer to God. So trust God in the process and know everyone has a pain, so you’re not alone. Remember the law of expiration that states that whatever have a beginning always has an end. Therefore no matter what you are going through, this too shall pass.

SEED—107

As the saying goes, “you reap what you sow.” Jim Rohn’s insight deepened my understanding: “What you reap is what you’ve sown.” Disagreeing with your harvest is like opposing oneself because life involves choices, not just the hand dealt.

Your living situation, clothing, employer’s directives, car, character, child-rearing, and provisions reflect past choices shaping your present lifestyle.

Remember, the seeds sown daily shape your future harvest. Invest in education, relationships with God and others, vision, ambitions, marriage, and family.

Sowing isn’t a choice but a necessity. Recall Paul’s words in Galatians‬ ‭6‬:‭7‬ and ‭9, emphasizing the link between sowing and reaping, urging persistence in doing good.

Life Nuggets Of SEED:

  1. No Seed, No Harvest
  2. Wrong Seed, Wrong Harvest
  3. Little Seed, Little Harvest
  4. More Seed, More Harvest
  5. Good Seed, Good Harvest

Always remember, consistent giving is crucial. Ceasing sowing leads to no harvest. King Solomon advised continuous sowing, promising outcomes with persistence (Ecc 11:6). Harvests are promising, but sowers bear the obligation to sow first.

BUILD IT—106

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. If results were easy, everybody would be successful. Not everyone may achieve success, but everyone possesses the seed of success within them, requiring dedication, diligence, devotion, determination, and decision.

Let me clarify: nothing in life is designed to function solely through wishful thinking, but everything is meant to operate under the grace of God. God may provide you with a house, but it’s up to you to make it a home. God may grant you ideas, talents, and skills, but it’s your responsibility to turn them into a business. God may reveal your partner, but the decision to marry or remain single lies with you.

Everything demands human effort before completion; nothing is fully formed because growth and cultivation are essential. Your life, relationships, ideas, talents, family, vision, and dreams all require nurturing.

Here’s a simple yet crucial life secret: your life must involve action before it starts working. Whatever you aim to celebrate must be built. Influential leaders devoted their time, energy, and resources to building, creating, managing, and developing until their potential transformed into reality.

For 2024, here’s what you must do:

  1. Plan: Never embark on anything without finishing it on paper.
  2. Execute: Time is limited; act upon your plan.
  3. Revisit: Obstacles signal intentions heading the wrong way. Correct errors and move forward.
  4. Team: Find individuals who believe in your vision. Doing everything alone isn’t building.
  5. System: Success is making it work, impact is sustaining it beyond your presence. Create a system for your success to function effortlessly without you.

You can, you should, you will, but if you don’t, that’s failure. However, if you can, you should, you will, and you did, that’s success. Understand this and find peace; impossibilities surround failure, while possibilities dwell in Mr. Success’s surroundings. Always remember, if you work on it, it will work; if you don’t, it won’t. Life is a choice: you can either build it or merely wish for it.
