 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN...

We'll all get there no matter the distance..

I Went to First Bank e-bank hall few hours ago. As I was about entering the hall, a lady ran ahead of me and pushed me away, so she could quickly join the long queue before I will get to the queue. I did not say anything. She thought I will queue up behind her, but I was actually not there to withdraw, I came to deposit. So I walked to the deposit machine and I was the only one there. No single person on the queue. When I finished depositing, I was about leaving the hall, when the lady came from the queue and apologized to me for pushing me away the other time. With sorry smile on her face; she said

'I am sorry for pushing you away, I thought you were coming to the queue'

I just smiled and told her not to bother, that it is not a big deal.

But since then, the lesson in this story kept coming to my mind, and I felt I should share it for us all to learn from it.

Friend, who are you 'pushing' away and trying to outrun in the race of destiny, relationship, business, ministry, career,etc? You are thinking you are going to the same 'queue' (destination) unknown to you that, though your path may look alike, your destinations are different!

How many people have had to say 'sorry' to those they pushed aside, pushed away, pushed down when they finally realized that the person was not actually going to the 'withdrawal machine' they were running to.

Are you reading this and you are pushing people away here and there by slandering them,  hindering their progress because you are the boss, blocking their promotion, spoiling their good names through lies and rumor & threaten people unjustly; remeber 1000 of your type is not equal to God, Pharaoh was deadly wicked than you yet he ended in deep sea as food for the fishes. I challenge you today, to take it easy. You might not be going to the same destination. It might surprise you later that, with all the pushing away you are doing, they may still leave you on the 'queue' of destiny later and they will be successful before you.

Finally, are you reading this and you can feel people in your school, office, ministry, business, etc pushing you away so that they can get ahead of you? Don't worry, God will use your case to prove to them that, 'it is not of him who runs, but of the Lord that shows mercy...'
God will show you mercy and give you an overtaking speed and those who are pushing you here and there will later come and tell you they are sorry.

Please, don't push anybody. You might meet on the same path, but you might not be going to the same 'machine' (destination).

Our TLF 2 Day Event

Our TLF 2 Day Event started on Thursday and ended yesterday Friday. We had the person of Mrs Ishioma Francis who came to share good news with the children. We had Art competition and prizes were given. We had spelling bee and gifts were given. We had skipping competition and gifts were given. We had recitation of poems originally written by the children and gifts were given. We also used the opportunity to remind everyone of our theme for August. We shared our drinks and biscuits and everyone had a nice time. The children interacted and had a nice time. It came to a happy end and everyone went back home safely. We look forward to more activities such as these. We thank God for the success and blessings. God bless all those who contributed in various ways. Remember that, the ultimate law is love. TLF

Did You Know?

Creativity comes from God the Creator and He has given us pro-creative abilities in different areas to make the world a better place and provide works of charity. In TLF we are big on arts, crafts and creativity. We celebrate creativity. Many people have been able to support charitable causes from creative art exhibitions and sales. Many others have also used their creative works to raise awareness on various laudable causes for social development. Take for instance in our theme for this month, we have selected some creative art works that will help pass our message to us in an artistic way. Also in our Centre, we host children who often come just to draw and make things from recycled materials. We strongly invite you to like our facebook page - TLF Creativity. We also share and retweet such creativity on our X handle that we also invite you to like and share. Our various artworks in TLF add to the posters we paste around and the comics we also produce and share out. Join our facebook ...

Theme

For us in TLF we are going to be focusing on Enterprise aka Labour aka Work for the entire month of June. We are urged to work. If you do not work how would you meet your daily needs? Like food, shelter, clothings and transportation? What about having what to give to others in need? There are so many reasons to work. I know many of us love to do what we love, we do not like to go to work if we do not like the job. But what if what you are doing as work and being paid for is actually what you love? What you love may not turn out to be a source of income, but we must still do what we can to earn. Are you enterprising? Please keep it up. Are you in paid labour in the private or public sector? Please do your work as unto the Lord God. Are you working all by yourself as a self employed worker? Please continue to grow and progress for greatness. Always know that in - Happy moments, praise God.  Difficult moments, seek God.  Quiet moments, worship God.  Painful moments, trust ...
