There Are Days Of Little Beginnings Yet We Will Rise!
#Thread

We all have childhood memories and stories, some we may be ashamed to share with people and some other people can learn from!

The days of little beginnings, when growth was gradually and every step was celebrated with love and joy!

Your first step seemed impossible while you were trying to crawl, the standing and falling, wanting to talk, some of us started by calling Mummy! Daddy! Mama! with a very tiny voice😅 and it was celebrated as if you won a lottery!

Then the first few steps, the little milk teeth, struggling to walk at least a little distance, starting school and here we are! ALL GROWN!
Now, your first steps should be how to fulfill purpose and make a living! Who will help you brush your teeth or comb your hair,

pack a lunch bag for you or carry you on the back🙄

My friend, you are a full grown adult! You have so much to achieve, a thousand and one people looking up to you! God is also looking, He wants you to make Him smile.

As a little girl, my parents gave me all I needed, drove me to school with a lunch bag contianing juice and biscuits. Little did I know, you need money to buy things.

I felt it was my right to be comfortable until I became a teenager😅 you will have to accept No sometimes, you may not even get what you expected and if you don't understand you may never be contented!

This is why so many youths go extra mile to get what their parents cannot provide for them, why can't you understand and be patient in the days of LITTLE BEGINNING? You don't need to wear expensive clothes and shoes now, you don't have to buy Gucci now! Wait for better days!

As a young lady striving towards my dreams and visions, I know I have to work, I know I have to study, I have to become responsible and learn to be independent, I need to be contented and stop comparing myself with others who have gone ahead of me.

I need to gain value, read more and also pray more!
No great man/woman became great in a day, no graduate went to school for a day, no one fulfilled purpose in a day! There is always a time for reading, studying, working, failing, rising, learning, unlearning and relearning.

A time of trail, a time they almost gave up, a time they almost lost hope, a time they had no food to eat, no friend to call, no good clothes to wear but the difference between now and then is consistency and perseverance!

What you did in the times of little beginnings should be framed in your heart, those who stood by you shouldn't be despised, how hard you worked can never be forgotten! It will stand as an encouragement and inspiration to others but what if you give up now?

What story will you tell? What story will you tell if you give up in the days of your little beginning, when you have no audience, little capital, few persons asking how much, 5 members in your church and just your family cheering you?

If you give up now, how can you see the glorious future? When your business will become recognized and your ministry global!

Just as every man must go through childhood, every great man through struggle and every graduate through school then you must see the days of little beginning, you will have to work for better days, read for more knowledge and be contented with your stage!

Without contentment you will become pressured, you will work for the wrong reasons and achieve less results!

In the days of little beginning, trust God for the best, rely on His grace, back up your faith with work, nothing will happen if you don't wake up to work towards your dreams! After dreaming, wake up and start working🔥

Relax, be grateful and appreciate the support you get, don't forget those who stood by you when you get to the top and even in your struggles, learn to put GOD FIRST❤

The Best Is Yet To Come!
