It's been long I published an article since the year started.
Well the year is 18 days old and I still want to say HAPPY NEW YEAR!
The year starts with God, consecration, fasting and prayers and as a result, social media activities have been epileptic for me.
However I decided to put this one out for whatever it's worth.
I feel a strong vibe that somebody might be helped by this publication.
#The_Advantage_Of_Availability is the blessedness of connection.
The more you study God, the more you would discover that God loves to connect people.
He is the JOINER!
He said it and He has not changed His stand concerning "IT IS NOT GOOD FOR MAN/WOMAN TO BE ALONE." (#Genesis2:18)
If you check very well, you will agree with me that nobody is self sufficient, nobody is an island, nobody is self existing, nobody actually is independent.
As long as life is concerned we must depend on things to survive.
For instance, No matter how wise, exposed and professional you are, you cannot say "to hell with oxygen." You must depend on it!
That is a simple but solid example to buttress the point that we remain dependent on some things.
There is no level or arrival that can make you think you arrived without support. Check very well and you will discover that whoever or whatever you are now, came as a result of some sort of support...
....the one that paid your tuition fee to become a doctor.
....the one that recommended you and now you sit on the board of the company as a member.
....the one that started off that business for you and now you are a millionaire.
....the one that intervened for you until you received the presidential pardon.
Let me say it again, the advantage of availability is the blessedness of connection.
Don't mismanage the people God joined you to!
The availability of some people in your life determines what stops or starts happening in your life.
Martha said to Jesus, "IF YOU HAD BEEN HERE, MY BROTHER WOULD NOT HAVE DIED." (#John11:21)
That's a heavy statement! Of which the interpretation is "MY BROTHER DIED BECAUSE YOU WEREN'T AVAILABLE! "
You know the rest of the story, when Jesus reconnected back to them by being available, their brother Lazarus reappeared in the flesh.
Two lessons to pick from this article.
1. BE HUMBLE ENOUGH TO RECONNECT TO PEOPLE THAT ARE, AND HAVE BEEN ADVANTAGEOUS TO YOUR LIFE.
2. DON'T BE TOO DISAPPOINTED TO THE POINT OF BECOMING DISADVANTAGEOUS TO THE PEOPLE YOU HAVE BEEN ADVANTAGEOUS TO.
Truly, one reason people stop helping or assisting others is because of how many times the fingers they fed have bitten them. (Avoid biting the fingers that fed you).
If you stop helping because you were hurt, then you have failed the test of true love because when it comes to doing good, here is the requirement: "DO NOT BE WEARY IN WELL DOING FOR IN DUE SEASON, YOU WILL REAP IF YOU FAINT NOT." (#Galatians6:9)
I'm done! Hope I made sense?
Will appreciate your comments and contributions, plus likes, shares and tweets.
