What Do You See: Half Filled or Half Empty?



God answered Moses, "See!..." - Exodus 7:1

Happy New Month to you. This is the first day in the month of August of a challenging year 2020. This year has been a kinda mixed year for a lot of folks no doubt but it's ain't over yet. You may not have started this year well but you can surely end it well. It all depends on how you see it.

Some folks see 2020 as a bad year , some see it as a year of opportunities, some see it as a stagnant year. It all depends on HOW we view it.

A cup of water that is half filled can also be said to be half empty. A year of problems can also be said to be a year of opportunities to solves problems and provide value.

There are just 5 months to go through to the end of the year; what's your story gonna be: positive or negative.

I don't know how you have been all this year but the fact that you survive till this moment and you are reading this is a good thing. You must learn to be positive and optimistic about life even in the midst of trials. No one is asking you to pretend but you've got to maintain an optimistic view about your life.

What you see about the month August determine what you will get in the month of August. What happens around you is not what limit you, what limit you is what happen in your mind. 

I see good things about the month of August, I imagine good stuff happening to me. I visualize great things in this month. I might not necessary know how it will all happened, I certainly believe it's going to be an awesome month for me. What do you see about the month of August.

And I'm not asking you to see the past or present, rather, see into the future. See far to the 31st of August; you getting that new job, buying that new car, moving into that new house, securing that new accommodation, having that successful operation, getting the debts cleared.

 Life is about to get better for you if only you can see. There is the good and bad aspect, I choose to see good and good alone, of course I am not living in denial of what is happening around me, rather I see that in spite of what's happening around me, I will blossom and prosper like a tree planted by the river side.

So my beloved folks, I encourage you to see good and good alone. Don't worry about the past, the future is bright and good. 

Is your cup half filled or half empty?

May the month of August be good unto you.

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me

Lessons From the Sons of Sceva

....the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? - Acts 19:15 One funny incident that I read in the  Bible is about the seven sons of Sceva that attempted to use the Name of Jesus to cast out demons. The demons replied them that He knows Jesus and Paul, but who are they? They were given the beating of their life. (Acts 19:11-16) Were they wrong in using the Name of Jesus? No. But truth is they don't know nor understand that Name. They only want to use it selfishly just to get the results that Paul was getting. They thought it was a rocket science. Many at times we believers are like that; We live in sin , we disobey God and when we need something, we want to perform miracles, do signs and wonders in the Name of Jesus which we really belittle or don't value.  Someone once said during a plane turbulence, he saw unbelievers even shouting the name of Jesus. No wonder some folks suffered embarrassment like the sons of Sceva.  When
