Good Morning
Has it ever happened to you that one day you wake up in the morning crying? Have you ever woken up crying, something that you have never done for quite a while, but while crying you felt so good? You cry until you feel so relieved and want to do it for some more time?
Look at this, so, you got on your knees and instead of using words to pray, you let your tears do it for you. You get to know that:
1. Being a student is hard!
2. Being a lecturer/teacher is hard, thrice being a student!
3. Being an adult is hard!
4. Being in business is hard!
5. Being a parent is even harder!
6. Being a wife is harder than doing PhD!
7. Being a husband is as tough as leather!
So, you just let it flow without a word. And you realize that it is okay to cry at times. Whether you are a man or otherwise.
You see, you may have been hitting some hard blocks and you have been suppressing feelings which may have been eating you up. One night, you are almost giving up in life. You want to give up on your dreams and start thinking about how you will start afresh. Your whole body and mind are saying to you to just give up.
This is the prayer and wish from the pastoral team to you: Wake up one morning with fresh hope and determination! Determination to push on in life. Determination to press on while holding God first. Tighter on hope. Determination to work harder and smarter.
So, you who is in business, is in a family, is in a profession, is a student, a wife, a husband etc. or going through something it is okay to cry for, please CRY to release then wake up and keep pushing. Whatever happens, focus on the positive bit. However dark it is, reach out for the light. Do not entertain negative thoughts because every time you do, you delay your blessings. Give thanks for the unimportant things and always be in a receiving mode for greater things. You must feel successful to be successful. The secret is to always reach for the better feeling and thought.
Blessings.
