I am encouraged by this.
Few days ago, I walked into a restaurant to have lunch. Immediately I settled down, I hurriedly placed my order (I was damn hungry - *LOL*), I just couldn't wait to eat a sumptuous meal. But things didn't go the way I'd expected it, something else happened.
After almost about 30mins of waiting for my order, 3 guys walked in to have lunch and of course placed their orders. Amazingly, almost immediately, they were served while I was still waiting for my order.
This got me a little angry and then i beckoned on the lady who took my order to inquire why I haven't been served and why the other guys who just walked in already got their foods.
Then the lady said to me politely, "Sir You Made A Very Special Order & I'll Take Time To beautifully Prepare It For You; the other guys just ordered for snacks!"
Hmmm.... that got me thinking. I took something from there - and that's the word for you today. I learnt a very profound lesson that day.
Sometimes in life, when you look around and see all of your friends (even Junior friends) having all the good things of life and it just seems you are the only one still waiting (struggling), you feel angry and depressed. But, here's the truth; You ordered a special kind of food, not just Snacks/Junks.
So, I want to encourage you, your order may seem delayed, friends may seem to be enjoying their meal (LIFE) while you are still waiting, I want you to know that God (The Master Chef) is taking His time to prepare a special delicacy for you and when you are finally served, it's gonna be so sumptuous.
Here's my word for you; Wait Just a little WHILE, Your MEAL is almost ready!
God bless You FRIENDS, I am PROUD of your waiting moment, & I just can't wait to celebrate your MEAL moments.
GOOD morning friends.

A lovely little girl was holding two apples with both hands.
Her mum came in and softly asked her little daughter with a smile; my sweetie, could you give your mum one of your two apples?
The girl looked up at her mum for some seconds, then she suddenly took a quick bite on one apple, and then quickly on the other.
The mum felt the smile on her face freeze. She tried hard not to reveal her disappointment.
Then the little girl handed one of her bitten apples to her mum,and said: mummy, here you are. This is the sweeter one.
No matter who you are, how experienced you are, and how knowledgeable you think you are, always delay judgement.
Give others the privilege to explain themselves.
What you see may not be the reality. Never conclude for others.
Which is why we should never only focus on the surface and judge others without understanding them first.
Those who like to pay the bill, do so not because they are loaded but because they value friendship above money.
Those who take the initiative at work, do so not because they are stupid but because they understand the concept of responsibility.
Those who apologizes first after a fight, do so not because they are wrong but because they value the people around them.
Those who are willing to help you, do so not because they owe you any thing but because they see you as a true friend.
Those who often text you, do so not because they have nothing better to do but because you are in their heart.
Those who take out time to chat with you, does not mean they are jobless or less busy, but they know the importance of keeping in touch.
One day, all of us will get separated from each other; we will miss our conversations of everything & nothing; the dreams that we had.
Days will pass by, months, years, until this contact becomes rare... One day our children will see our pictures and ask 'Who are these people?' And we will smile with invisible tears because a heart is touched with a strong word and you will say: 'IT WAS THEM THAT I HAD THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE WITH'.
A Bathing soap for 80k?? Will it wash away sins
and sorrows?
• One Eye glasses for 350k?? If I wear it, will I be
able to see the future?
• An Italian shoe for 150k?? Will I be able to walk
on water?
• A Plasma TV for 500k?? Will it show me the
Judgement day on the last day live?
• A Gold plated mobile phone for 3 million naira.
Chai!!! Will I use it to answer heaven's call?
• A Hand Bag for 1.3Million naira?? Will I put my
life inside it?
• 2 million naira for a table in comedy show.
Which kind
laugh I never laugh before?
• 3 Million naira per year at a university. After
graduation, will they make me the president?
Sometimes, I wonder why some people spend like
craze, knowing fully well that there are hungry
children in the streets roaming about naked.
1. The smallest act of kindness you show, can
change someone's life.
2. Remember, money only brings happiness if you
help people with it.
3. Let someone say to you, BECAUSE OF YOU I
DIDN'T GIVE UP !!!
When God blesses you financially,
don't just raise your STANDARD OF LIVING, also
raise your STANDARD OF GIVING.
