You're being Expanded.





For over a year now, I've experienced some major shake ups in virtually every area of my life.

These series of ups and downs really started getting to me at some point, which is a normal human reaction.

But thankfully I slowly kept scaling through each one that came. Thanks to God.

Yesterday while going back to my work station, I was thinking about some of these things and I found some answers right on that journey.

Usually my route to work takes me through the Zaria- Kaduna expressway which recently have been under construction as the roads are being expanded.

While looking at the work going on in the following thoughts passed through my mind;

- The road under construction, was already an existing road built during the military administration.
But because it had to be expanded the existing structure had to go.

- Lots of scraping of the old tar with heavy equipment had to be done.

As a result the road has become large stretch of red sand and no longer looked 'tush'.

And this is is a what plays out in life.

 When you are about to accommodate more traffic, more influence, more money, bigger breaks, you go through a period of 'expansion'.

And no expansion is sweet, beautiful and calm.

It is most times full of turmoil, pain, tears, 'seeming' disappointments and temporary setbacks.

It seems your yesterday now looks better than today.

But what you do not know is that for you to go far, you will first of all like an arrow about to be shot, be pulled back, so that the speed of the shot will hit the desired target.

Are you going through some stretches currently?

Rejoice because like the new road that is being expanded to accommodate more cars, your life is being expanded to accommodate new levels of victory, blessings and influence.

Stay hopeful.

The Crisis of Identity.

When we went from placing value on what really matters to just external things humanity fell so hard and broke it's back. The impact of that fall is why we have so many people with low self esteem and terrible identity crises. Much more than failing economies, hunger, disease, widespread poverty is the crisis of the individual.  The crisis of seeking validation, of feeling some sort of worth and value. That inner questioning and probing that requires an answer. Sadly many people do not have the answer to that inner question. They then turn to things, all kinds of external things and invite them to come in and answer that inner man. Unfortunately the externals can't do so. They lack the capacity to answer those questions and the individual in a bid to either answer or silence that question seeks more of these externals and at every point they keep saying No, we don't have the answers. The individual is now confused, what do I do? Then he sights another human li...
