The invisible bright sight

When you are at the lowest of the lows, few people believes that there is still portential in you, even your spouse may doubt you.
People dismis your ideas and push theirs because if yours were working, how come you are where you are?
No one believes that you will rise above that situation one day.
If they did, they would invest in you, a simple phone call, a text msg, a visit. Some times suport is not money.
People never believe you untill you make it in life.
Only when you are making waves, then they wanna talk investmenting in you.
People expect you to pull yourself out of the pit before they provide help.
Many people have died trying to rise above their situation and those with help were watching as a movie.
We, as society have learned to be numb to the poverty and lack we see around us, until it has something in it for us.
People wait until there are television cameras for them to rescure the situation.
Most people are not sensitive and focused enough to see beyond a smile, fancy clothes, car, goodcompany of friends and capture a person for who he/ she really is, and what is happening in their space.
Many people have collapsed and hospitalised because their bodies could not be stronger than their strength anymore.
Heaviness is at the shoulders of many, yet few cares to ask beyond "Goodmorning and how are you?"
Be in the habit of buying and sharing food or coffee with the homeless, not just drop and go as usual.
Invite a brother, sister or a family for lunch and talk without putting the musk on.
Listen to peoples stories and never say anything about yours, let it be about them.
At our level we all can do something that will change the outlook of the next person, it's not about money.
The signs are visible yet we pretend that we can not see them.
We point to the #Government, #Redcross or #Giftofthegivers
Let me have sight beyond what I can see.

Not for too long

A year has four beautiful seasons, however our winter may seem to be the longest.
Too long in the cold,
Have to deal with ashes,
No sunshine,
Longest nights,
Have to deal with the woods,
but nobody makes fire with fresh woods, it takes a dead wood to warm-up the house.
It is a dry dead wood that is crafted to a wonderful piece of furniture.
Dead woods can bring the most needed warmth and looks in a home.

A tree provide shade from the sun, block a strong wind from damaging the structure and prevent soil erosion when it is still standing.
When it has been cut down, many things comes out of it, furniture, fire woods and maybe compost.

So are the dead situations in our lives, whatever you feel that is dead in you has a potential to elevate your life.
Nothing and no one is totally useless,
"Even a dead clock shows correct time twice a day"
Ecclesiastes3:1
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.

IT'S NOT PERSONAL MY SISTER, MY DAUGHTER, IT'S A WAKEUP CALL!

Women always get emotional and upset about men not being talked to enough just like they do to them.
Young girls complain that every meeting about self control is targeted at them.
The boys are always left to do as they  please and no one pays attention to them as they do to girls .
Your parents made mistakes, how stupid can you get to fall in the same trap?
Many women will tell you how difficult it was for them to get their qualifications after their families disowned them.They would talk about how difficult it is to raise a child on their own!

Everybody says she/ he is cute, and you are saying inside "cute does not have food, nappies, cosmetics and more"
When somebody buys you lunch, you wish they could give you that money because "cute" needs things you can not afford to provide.

LET'S CONSIDER THESE FEW THINGS:

Who gets pregnant?
Who gets to miss a year of school, postpone her graduation?
Who gets sleepless nights with a child,while a boy enjoys peaceful sleep with another girl?
Who gets her body disfigured?
Who gets to think about what the baby is going to eat?
Who makes sure that the baby's food is there always?
Who gets to send messages to the boy, trying to get him to come and see the child, not to mention bring the milk?
Guess who is going to get bitter as she loses friends with vision and wisdom?
Guess who is going to say, "they think they are better", when friends find other friends to hang out with?
Guess who is going to be heartbroken when the boy snaps and says " I never said get pregnant, you cramping my style telling people we have a baby?
NB: No boy has ever taken a break from school, varsity because his girlfriend was pregnant.
You suddenly have to change clothes you can't afford, for the sake of the baby you can't afford and the father who can not afford.
"Why is everybody/ my parents have to think of the worst case always, who said I was planning to get pregnant any way?"
That's how every girl thinks just before it happens, just before the boom that will change and transform your life explodes in your face.

Wiseup girls, women and sisters!
That temporary pleasure  brings long term commitment,a painful journey with an innocent child!
Look into your family, relatives, community and society  you live in and see if you really like what you see.
Make a choice with your mind and not the heart when it comes to longterm investments and journey.

How do you see yourself?

People look at you as they see themselves, they want you to manage their expectations.
A person up there is wondering what is keeping you down there, a person down and under is working hard to prove that he is worth a chance as well.
A person under employer is wondering what keeping you from getting a job, are you lazy and not pushing yourself hard enough, or God is dealing with you because of the wrong or sin your life?
A successful business person is wonders how people fail in their business ventures because this is not rocket science.
Married people may wonder why others fail on their marriages and even judge you for failing to keep it together.
When last did you like and associated with a person for who he is and not what he or does not have?
Do you associate with a handsome poor young man or beautiful lady, provide good company, food, clothing and shelter so you may have sex at the end?

How do you see yourself?

Does  people's opinion about your life changes your belief system?
Do you feel demotivated after spending time with some people, while they may feel they have given you enough motivation for a day, to last you a lifetime?
Have you ever sat yourself down because you really don't understand why somebody feels, think and make it clear that he or she is in a better than you?
Is work, money, network, business, political standing, position in the society suppose to guide us how much we love and associate with people, or people are suppose to be attracted by those attributes to us?

I see myself as an unfinished work of God, uncut diamond, unpolished gold.
I see my life as a story of hope to many, a proof that prayer changes situations.
I am a written book not yet published.
I am a story of hope, your life will get better too, you will make it against all odds.
Trust God and believe in Jesus Christ.

I'm not perfect and so are you

I've seen people making the worse mistakes of their lives, mistakes that leads to divorce.
They focus their energy on what is not working forgetting that there is so much that is going right in their love life.
Positive communications and praise brings the best in everyone, blame and degradation brings doubt and low self esteem in the best people ever to live.
I bet we still have an opportunity to waste or make the best out of it, only we can make that choice.
When I said I love you we did not have a house to fight about and if that does not bring peace, let there be no house.
I loved when there was no social media, and social media can leave us alone if it's not here to make our lives better.
I loved you  even more with your daughter, and you still loved me when I said I have kids from my past relationships and one day I would love us to be a one big happy family.
Let the children strengthen our relationship as we understand they are in our lives for a short while but we have each other forever.
Give me a hint, a clue on what I keep on  missing time and again so I can take a three year course at Harvard, Oxford or Wits to perfect it once and for all.
I will never be perfect and so are you.
If we could celebrate love living under the bridge, why allow a liking roof to destroy our marriage.
Help me in my weakness and I will celebrate you strength and success.

I'm still standing:

Truth is, God is good. I didn't pay much attention in my life as a youth and ended up doing many right things before their time which automatically put me in a disadvantage position, but his faithfulness and love rescued me.
People use you because of the good PR of your brand to enhance their image, brand association depends on how good is your brand reputation.
God uses you as a vessel, because what is important is how good God is than how good you are.
When God send you on an assignment, never look at yourself because you will find nothing worthy, but look at the opportunity of representing the kingdom of God.
Nando's on a take away is as nice as it is on a plate, the vessel is not important but the content.
As a vessel I'm always amazed just like you are when God use me in a public platform. It's not about me, it's about God and his kingdom.
Proverbs3:5 trust is the Lord and lean not on your own understanding......

God is not pleased with your thoughts and words

I don't like white people who uses the word of God to oppress black people, I hate it.
Every white person who still feels that in 2016, biblical or by any standard we are not equal, has a right to leave this country of black people and go where that is practised.
It is not practical to segregate, divide and rule South Africa, we are far better than that.
Talking from the pulpit about black people and tarnishing their image is not different from the people who have expressed themselves about black people on social media.
Black people are not lazy!!
Every brick that built Johannesburg, Durban, Capetown, Bloemfontein and many towns is South Africa was build by the hand of a black man, and we had to have permission to be in those cities after building them.
Every rail you see in our country was laid by the hands of a black man.
Every field you see, a black man busy it and it produces the GDP of this country.
Every sugar cane across our country was planted and it is still maintained and cut down by a black man.
We have build every school and university and our fathers were not even allowed entry in those institutions.
They are little foxes that is spoiling our vines and they comes from the angles that we have never expected because of trust.
Is it still true that eve men was made at the image and likeness of God?
