The Hawker

 











There was slight traffic on my way to work yesterday morning, and as the car I was in drove on, my attention was drawn to a hawker on the street. Someone had motioned to him from one of the cars to bring his wares but as he approached the car, the car began to move. I watched as the guy ran and ran after the car just so he could get to the car and have his wares sold. When I say he ran, I mean he did so for minutes. Sadly, he didn’t catch up with the car. 

I felt sad for him....cos he was trying to make ends meet but that didn’t change the fact that life doesn’t make things easy sometimes.

One thing I have learnt over time is that, what you desire doesn’t always fall on your laps or wait at your door steps in the morning....you have to move...and moving doesn’t guarantee that you will eventually get it, only the mercy of GOD does. 

Indeed success comes from GOD
No matter the amount of time, effort and hard work you put in to get something done or produce something "You can’t exclude the GOD-factor"
His breathe, His direction (guidance), His help and His mercy are key
....His breathe because it gives life and beauty to your ideas, products and wares
....His direction because only GOD leads you to the RIGHT person or client and at the RIGHT time
.....His help because even when you find the right client at the right time, you need a way into their hearts. GOD’s help gives favour; grants speed and open the right doors for you
....His Mercy because it gives you more than what you truly deserve

 Bank on His Mercy.....It endures FOREVER!

Some days ago, I was singing the song "I know my redeemer lives" by Nicole Mullen. As I sang the first line of the song; "who taught the sun where to stand in the morning..." the words hit me and it felt like I was hearing the words of the line for the first time. Who taught the sun where to stand in the morning?                                                                                       Pause and think for some minutes… 💭 Did GOD sit the sun down after creating it to explain what is was made to do or that it was expected to rise in the east and set in the west?  Was there a tutor assigned th e responsibility of showing the sun how to rise, how to shine, or to tell the sun the perfect time to set?  or Did the sun require daily reminders to rise in the morning and give warmth and light to the world?  I doubt that..😶 So, if no one taught the sun where to stand in the morning, then how did the sun know where to stand?  Every appliance made or created is wir

We all watched as JDee tried to crawl on his knees some days back. Prior to this, he had been doing a great job crawling on his stomach, but the guy just can't wait to walk... Lol. So he keeps pushing himself.  Lessons: *You will always remain at the same spot doing the same things until you push yourself forward.  *Don't stop at the point or place where others think you should and neither should you stop because of factors like your age or your sex, or the fact that no one has ever done it before. You can be the first to break and set a new record. *Keep pushing yourself until you are all you can be.  *Don't let the barriers and mindsets stop you.  Eventually JDee did it... He moved one knee and we all went screaming.  Why did we scream?  *We saw the progress he had made even though, some would consider it so little, but try asking a mum who has been praying for her child to walk after so many years, she would consider that a great a
