This morning my sleep was interrupted with
my heart panting. To me, it was one of those moments when you are pressed, and suddenly,
you wake up and have to visit the loo. The difference this time was that I
couldn't just go back sleep. As a matter of fact, I felt like something was in
my mind and was burning so much that, returning to sleep, would have been
tantamount to dereliction of once calling. So, I decided to yield to whatever
it was that was perturbing me vigorously on the inside.
So, as I sat and pondered for a few
moments, I was subconsciously reminded of my purpose and the magnitude of my dreams.
In fact, the need to keep up the pace and momentum were the key prickling factors
which got me to such a heightened state, that, I couldn't simply ignore and
retire to bed, again.
Then
a question came to mind, I was asked by fear, are your undertakings not bigger
than you? Now, that's the enemy speaking, and the God in me had to quickly
respond. Get up, son, and do!! I was told. The surprising thing is that, this
is not the first time that I had felt this way.
I believe that whatever the Almighty God
has called you to do, and placed in those scared hands of yours, he would
surely avail you the tools to accomplish them. But, there is a reminder from time
to time. You can either rise up to the occasion or snooze and lose it all.
You see, if you are called to fulfil a
specific purpose, and fill a void either physically or spiritual, you must make
it a point of duty to keep up. The lie that the enemy within, whatever that may
represent to you, would make you believe, is that, you are not worth it and
that mission that you have been graciously called to embark on may be too big a
shoe for you to fit in. Lie! Lie! Lie! All lies, I said.
If you are reading this, this morning, then
you are one of those that your Creator has compelled me to deliver this good news
to. And that is, you can accomplish all that you have been assigned to do, NOW.
Forget about what that negative voice is saying to try to convince you on the inside.
The God who designed you, desires for you to be a GAME-CHANGER, and certainly not
a mere functioning part of the assembly line of LIFE.
If anything does not keep you up in the
middle of the night, then it is not real and certainly not big enough. Those
seemingly impossible dreams, desires, and endeavours, that you have conjured in
the inmost part of your heart will definitely KEEP YOU UP AT NIGHT.
As a matter of certainty, if you don't
embark on devising ways to see to their realisation, you will have no peace,
nor freedom.
This morning, I have fulfilled that mission
which interrupted my peace tonight, and now I feel a true sense of relief and
unburdened. The decision is now yours to see wisdom in what you have perused
and get working.
It is my sincere hope that, you will intentionally
wake up and strive to begin to break boundaries, and part ways with all the false
limitations in your life. Remember to pray to your CREATOR to aid you in discovering
your true calling in life and direct your path, accordingly.
Albeit, not easy, in the fruitful end, you
will find cause to be thankful and lead a life without regrets.
