How disciplined are you?

The mere fact that you want something so badly doesn’t necessarily mean that’s what you need. DISCIPLINE is a virtue many lack, yet it’s an important prerequisite to taking us from where we are to where we ought to be. Everyday, you sit in front of the mirror sobbing about how fat you are, but you’re so quick to grab a bar of chocolate when you see one.*smiles*. You have an examination coming up, you’ve been wishing and praying that you come out in flying colours, yet you have no idea of what your note entails, perhaps because you’ve got a short-cut in mind failing to realize that often times, short-cuts end up cutting people short.

How disciplined are you…In your career, your relationship, your work place and in every facet of your life? How disciplined are you with those sticks of cigarette that have become a worthy companion to you? How disciplined are you, when you easily abandon the things/people that’ll help you but prefer to take solace in the arms of those that’ll destroy you? You see, it’s so easy for us to talk about the log in someone else’s eyes, when we haven’t even removed the speck from ours. Why be in a hurry to condemn others, when you’ve not been able to redeem yourself.

I totally understand that day after day, we are confronted with a whole lot of challenges. Nobody Said it was gonna be easy. But that’s why we’ve got ONE who sticks closer than a brother, ONE who is our ever present help in time of need. You know the interesting thing about this person, is that, he won’t leave you alone when you’re caught in the fire, neither will he let the waters over flow you. He is the God of the eleventh hour…the one who steps in when everyone steps out. Just lay your fears, tears, pains, struggles, burdens, etc at his feet….at the end, YOU’LL DEFINITELY COME OUT TOUGHER THAN NAILS.
