You will never know what God will want to do with your life... However, you should be ready for anything.

Would you imagine doing…? Yes! That which you think can only be done other people. Not you!

I have been there, thinking that I could never be like him/her or the others.

My path through life, I thought, was cast and no one, no situation or circumstance would change the course. I was dead wrong.

I thought…

·         I could get any amount of loan and repay it. No sweat!

·         I could run my business to the highest prosperity!

·         I could hold my marriage steady through decades!

·         I could drive myself or be driven in my car all my life!

·         I could give my children anything they ever wanted!

The certainities were endless.

Life shocked me into my senses and now, years later, I appreciate everything I am able to do with greater sense of achievement and profound humility.

Luckily, though I was never prepared for what happened, God took my hand and helped me through the mud, floods and bruising rocks.

Severally, I begged God to let go and let me fall into oblivion, but He knew what great happiness I would find beyond all the suffering.

Today, I am grateful for all the little triumphs in my life and the lives of my precious ones.

Live your life in the moment, but always be ready for the uncertainity ahead!

I pray that yours will be easier.
