Beloved, when you are full of yourself, you miss opportunities in life. Assisting others reach where they are going connects you with divine assistance for your destiny journey.
SCRIPTURE: As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith. Galatians 6:10
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: When you are full of yourself, you miss opportunities in life.
Sometime ago, I heard a story of a young man who saw an old man trying to climb the air-stair of a plane with his luggage as they were boarding the plane. Immediately he sighted the old man with his luggage, he said, ‘Can I help you sir?’ The old man delightfully accepted and was excited. The young man carried his luggage and helped him into the plane. The old man asked, ‘Are there still such young men that can care for elderly people in this country? What do you do for a living?’ The young man said that he is a contractor. The old man again asked, ‘With which company?’ He mentioned some companies in Lagos and coincidentally, the Managing Director of one of the companies happened to be the old man’s son. Then the old man gave him his call card and told him to give it to the Managing Director of the company. The man took the card to the Managing Director of the company, and with an expression of surprise, the Managing Director asked him, ‘Where did you meet my father?’ And the man narrated the story. Now, the company was indebted to the young man to the tune of over a Hundred Million Naira. And by that connection, the money was paid on the spot and their business relationship was consolidated.
Beloved, when you are full of yourself, you miss opportunities in life. Assisting others reach where they are going connects you with divine assistance for your destiny journey.
Remember this: When you are full of yourself, you miss opportunities in life.
