Catastrophes in the world such as the recent pandemic, the war in the middle east, famine in certain parts of the world often remind us about the vulnerability of life. When things go well people tend to trivialize what is found in the very core of our existence which is the concept of life itself.
As humans what differentiates us from the other species is the fact that, we can comprehend, conceptualize and interact with our immediate environment. We have been granted the ability not only to initiate change but to be influential.
Life is a gift from God, and we have been given stewardship over our lives. One day we will stand in front of our God and give an account for that which we did as well as that which we did not do in our lives. Opportunities are presented to us occasionally reminding us of our responsibilities as agents of change.
To some these opportunities are recognized and used to effect changes in their lives while some allow opportunities to pass them by and never seize them, they are often trapped in the condition of analysis paralysis and fail to take action when faced with lucrative opportunities.
We need to wake up from the slumber, and recognize that we are destined to reign.
We were created for such a time as this.
The world has taught us that in order to do something we have to have monetary incentives, we have allowed ourselves to be in a state of a catatonic stupor and the only way to move is if we are presented with money.
The availability or lack thereof is the driving force behind each and every one of our actions and decisions. I implore you to start, make a change and everything else will follow.
Influential people in the world who have been pioneers of change have started with nothing, some had one great idea which they sold for millions.
There are investors in the world who are willing to invest in ideas. You might be sitting there with a world changing idea and in need of a cash injection. Make a concerted effort to approach businesses, do not allow your life to go to waste, stand and be counted. The coming of the Lord is eminent, we see signs each and every day time is running out!
