MIDNIGHT:The Womb of a New Day..

Isn't it ironic that the time of the day we refer to as midnight is also the beginning of a new day? We do not start to count a the 24 hour -day at the sunrise, we begin at MIDNIGHT.

Most times in our lives we find ourselves at that point where it appears to be midnight or it really is midnight. Everything seems to just spiral out of control, it's a season of confusion, seeming unending problems and challenges and what little hope we have flies outta the window. At that point becomes difficult to even believe that something new and better can happen.

That dark moment that all seems lost is the same moment a new day is born. The midnight is the womb that births a new day. Your dark and hopeless situations are the wombs that will birth your beautiful morning.

Don't give up when it gets so dark, that's the signal for the dawn of a new day, so when you see challenges, brace up because your good break is about to show up.

What if they overtake you?

Succumbing to this pressure is one of the greatest source of stress and unhappiness in life.

If they get married , get the job, contract, children, admission, houses or whatever it is before you then what? Does it stop your heart from beating or your lungs from taking in air? Allow people to move at their speed, if they are ready to overtake you let them and move at your own pace.
