Matthew 15:29-39
“How many loaves do you have? “
Jesus asked “Seven” They replied, “and a few small fish”. (Verse 34)
We most times give ourselves
heartache and dissolution ourselves with what we think we do not have to make
through life’s journey, but have not taken time to think of things we have that
God can use. Most times we bug our heart with, “What to do”, “How to do it”,
and “When to do it” to be successful in life, not reminding ourselves of what
we have and how God will multiply it.
Some times in 2011 someone
sent these words to me “Imagine a person
who has never known any modern technology (for example someone living in the
heart of a dense jungle). One day this person is given a radio tuned in to a
very precise radio station and he finds it suddenly extraordinary to be able to
listen to music through what is essentially a small box. He is told that to
listen to this music he need only press the 'on' button without having to do
anything else to listen to this music. This person thinks this radio is a wonderful
invention and then spends a number of years listening to this radio and to the
same program as the radio stays on the same station all of the time. And then
one day someone else comes along and shows him that there are a multitude of
other stations and frequencies to listen to with many other programs that can
be as interesting as the first.... You are in the position of this person
Oluwasesan and your potential can be compared to this radio. Your potential is
not yet fully exploited and you are not yet aware of certain of your hidden
talents. I find myself in the place of the person who's duty is to show you
exactly how you can tune in to these new frequencies. This is a metaphorical
example but it demonstrates clearly the situation in which you find yourself at
this time”.
We all have all we
need to make it through in life’s journey but have to make extra effort in
discovering our unique qualities (potential) God wants to use.
PRAYER: I
know I have all you need for my situation, please dear Lord reveal to me all I
need to know to make it through (AMEN).
