Allowing others grow


Some years ago, I woke up to see that a bird had made her nest by my window. My first thought was to get a stick and scatter the nest but I was led to do otherwise. So I had a bird as a neighbor for a while. I was excited when she laid an egg, and I kept waiting and watching to see the egg hatch. I walked by to check one morning, and I was so delighted to see the egg had hatched and a cute bird was there looking at me, eventually their squatting season was over, and they left. I immediately, destroyed the nest, and closed the window before another bird would show up.

 

What did I learn?

The importance of making room for someone/something to grow, blossom and flourish.

Was it easy?

Nope, it was not. The cooing sound from the bird and the cold coming through the window were things I had to endure for few weeks

As we glide into November, be alert and sensitive to the people GOD will bring your way. It might not be so convenient but GOD has put in you the grace that will allow people soar and grow. Focus on the end and the transformation that will birthed as you help and assist these ones.

May November be more wonderful than you have imagined.


Yspot!

    Indeed! Making room for other people not only when it's convenient is one thing we need to learn.

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
