LEARN TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY

Most times we shift blames regarding our predicament on people around us; especially when we find some public figures that tend to stand their grounds on our behalf. The Israelites had someone to shift blames on. Even when they knew he cannot rescue them. Before he was introduced by God they learnt to talk to their creator directly but soon after a spokesperson was brought to the scene they counted less on prayers. Getting to the first roadblock they cried out to their God but suddenly words of regrets gushed out of their mouths. They even confessed that they preferred serving the Egyptians till death path their ways. The father God heard them and made a way out. From that period they began a new way of life. A life of complaints. They believed everything they wanted can be achieved by simply laying blames on Gods spokesman. Their groaning attitude changed into a grumbling attitude.

GOING THE DISTANCE | SMAJ Publishing House

The will to go the distance is the key to any goal; To stick it out despite the odds to choose the winner's role. Or it would be so easy not to make a choice at all; To turn your head the other way and just ignore the call.  One choice leads to a mountain-the other to a bog; One leads up where the air is pure-the other through a fog. To choose the right is surely hard, its challenges are tough; It's climb is steep and awesome, it's surfaces are rough.  The multitudes just drift along with false pride in their voice; And spend their days in vain pursuit of meaning in their choice. Though they could find fulfilment and they could feel the touch; Of goals and growth and greatness-that just requires 'too much'. 

JUST LIKE THAT .... | Segun ALONGE

The dawn of a bright new day; Another privilege to decide a new course. The creator counted me worthy; To live in accordance with His plan for me.  How can i just let this gift slip by; With all the benefits it entails And watch the events unfold in turns; With no care for details.  The creator had me in mind; When He was involved in His creative ventures He never purposed a day to unwind; And i just swim along its shores.
