The Youth Proverbs (Volume 4)

Image
By
Thou art inexcusable O'Youth!
Don't say they caused it,
Don't say you wouldn't have done it,
If they didn't push you.

Factually, parents leave their children to fate,
And carefully rear the turkey and Chicken,
Forgetting that Children are to be reared,
Turkey and chicken to fate.

They leave their children to fate,
What if it turned "the fate of a cockroach"?
What if they failed?
And they would have to struggle to rise...

No helper shows up,
All along, you've been dragging the load in fate,
Faith seems to you like fate,
You feel so alone!

The molestation distabilized you,
The abuse made you worse,
You feel it doesn't worth it,
Life leaves you to fate.

You are  handicap,
Your parents died while yet a baby,
The accident took your eyes,
You are poor.

You feel it doesn't worth it,
No friend will stay,
No parent will support,
No Pastor will encourage.

You hail from a small town,
The government is cruel,
No one believes in you,
'cause you are a girl.

In all and with all,
Dear youngster, you have no excuse,
Many are they in your shoes and walking in purpose,
Now that you have your strength in full, Jerk up!

 Like Rebekah, take your water pot upon your shoulder,
Like Joseph, don't bury your talents even in the prison,
Like David, don't allow lion to eat your sheep in the wilderness,
You're created for a purpose, strive to fulfill it.

In a Nutshell;
Don't be surprised on the judgement day if, God brings out thousands of people who were in your shoes but outlived the limitations of their situations/crises/trials on earth to make sure they fulfill purpose.
       Part of the realities on earth is that, many parents remember to carefully rear the domestic animals which they will kill and eat and excrete and forget, while they totally forget about their children and leave them to fate. Children are neglected and left alone to face life without getting them prepared. Paul the apostle instructed fathers (parents) in Ephesus to "rear" their children with all consciousness. He wasn't talking to the Ephesians alone, but all parents who desire great a future for their children.
       A lot of things happen on the surface of earth, but Jesus Christ the son of God gave us the hope, He said, we should be at peace, because, He has overcome the world.
       Therefore, my dear youth, no matter what your story may look like, it is not an excuse for you not to fulfill your purpose of existence. Read well about, Moses, Joseph, David, Paul the apostle, even Jesus Christ. Strive for your own destiny.

THE MIRROR: IDENTITY AND SELFHOOD

By
Identity. It’s the essence of who you are—your personality, the core of your being. Selfhood, on the other hand, is the expression of that identity, the way you present yourself to the world. Think back to a time when you had to show your identity card. Do you remember the reaction of the person you handed it to? Likely, they nodded in approval, having seen all the necessary information about you on that card. Your identity, in that moment, was defined by the details captured on that small piece of plastic. But identity is more than just what's written on a card. It’s how you define yourself and how others perceive you. It’s the name you give yourself, the image you project, and the way people recognize you. Selfhood is often conveyed through three key aspects: - Dressing (Your Appearance) - Actions (What You Do and How You Do It) - Speech (The Words You Speak and How You Utter Them)  Dressing (Your Appearance) There’s a common saying: "Appearance shows the manner." Where...

The Greatest Goal

By
When the ball enters the net, they say it's a goal! And the loosing team feel defeated forgetting that they've got the greatest goal.  Same to a man who has all his goals lain down and strategically pulling his efforts towards the goal but to realize at the end that, his goals can't be achieved, for known or unknown reasons. He looses strength. At times, he can feel like it's over. But the truth remains that it's not over until it is over. He's got the greatest goal.       Really, a goal is the achievement toward which effort is directed. And billions are the "I want to", "by God's grace I will", "in fact, I must" in the speeches of every man, especially at the beginning of every matter, but strength wanes and the story changes maybe in the middle of the road. Because all efforts put towards the achievement of the goals seem to be less affective. The truth is, no man has control over whatever happens and will happen....
