Our Seed Time
I got the mail below from a friend, brother and partner. It encouraged me and i decided to share it with you. Enjoy.
I was just thinking this morning and I realized we are in our seed time, and Enviable Youth is our Seed to the thousand we have been privileged to minister to. Many who were once confused have been set on a right path. Just yesterday, someone I advised sometime last year at a programme in Yabatech buzzed me on FB to thank me for the counsel and now works as a trainer with Aptech.
If we have sown then it is also imperative we reap. Do you think we also can be confused and remain so, unable to find a way out of our confusion? No. We will surely find help somehow by meeting other people who are in their seed time, encouraging us and providing the support we require. I remember all the Students, Corpers, Workers and other professionals we have ministered to and directed on a course of action which apparently is benefitting them so well; some have chosen a more appropriate course, gotten a job placement, changed job and lots are far better just because in convenience and inconvenience we journey miles, through thick and thin, night and cold, endangering our lives and resources just for this privilege to be used for a more honourable cause.
You know sometimes; I sit and think, what am I in this for when many are making plans to better their lives financially, attending biz meetings, going to kill one deal or the other and apparently becoming better financially. But also I look and see much more who do nothing weekdays and weekends, leaving through life and coasting as it comes, I realized my effort is not to be compared to others, we all have different callings. Some will be king and would rightly serve as king, while some will only come to fruitfulness by being king’s adviser. I understand, beyond doubt that we are in our seed time, we are preparing the way for the future life we dreamt of yesterday.
Therefore, whenever I am at a fix, I remember the finished work of Jesus and the sacrifices he has graced us to dispense and honour him in words saying “A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed”. More so, that the word of God never fails, it will work for us in every situation. We won’t lack help and counsel, our wives will not, our children will not. Before we call for help, many runneth to us in their hundreds just because suddenly the seeds we gradually sowed years past grows and show as fruits in our present and future.

Unemployed or Arrogant?

I have interest in a farm somewhere in Osun State. I noticed that all the young people who engage in activities like clearing, weeding, planting happens not to be from that state. They come from places as far as Benue and Cross River. What then are the indigenes doing? They will rather engage in okada driving or sit idle complaining there is no job.
People like to do easy jobs and disdain menial jobs. Are white collar jobs easier than blue collar jobs? Well is it easy to acquire the credentials that make you eligible for a white collar job? If you have the credentials for a white collar job and can’t find any would you not prefer a menial job than stay idle?
I am irritated when i see young people beg for money. Why should you focus on what you cant do rather than what you can? Before you go and beg for money from that uncle or relative can you identify problems you can solve for him. Imagine a youth come to meet you and ask if he can do your laundry, wash your car and or baby sit for you and then compensate him with money in return.
Wow! Is that not a better way to earn money? Earn money with dignity. There is something about the money you work for. It is typically well spent. Even if I don’t have a task for you, my heart will be more readily opened to give to your pocket. Go with a value adding mentality.
I can’t be a driver, teacher, farmer, cleaner etc. It is beneath my status. Yet we see Nigerians with superior qualifications going abroad to engage in menial jobs for dollars. I have seen people turn offers for white collar job down because they say the pay is poor. Haba.......yet my people for Warri talk say at all at all na im bad.
Don’t despise the days of little beginning. How little can a menial job or a low paying white collar job be for you to prefer idleness to being busy and productive. Doing nothing makes you better at nothing – only!
Bury your pride. The first and important thing is to enter the game. Yes enter the race and improve your situation and status as you go.
