See it through

A total stranger struck up a conversation with me the other day, (i was in a uniform that arouses curiosity). He asked a few questions, we exchanged pleasantries and he said "keep up the good work! See it through, it's a poem... look it up." I'm glad I looked it up because it's pretty inspiring.  I'm saying the same thing to you. Whatever journey your on, keep moving, put one foot in front of the other , it may seem super slow sometimes but just keep it up and see it through!! Have a great day!! The poem is below

See it Through
When you're up against a trouble,
Meet it squarely, face to face;
Lift your chin and set your shoulders,
Plant your feet and take a brace.
When it's vain to try to dodge it,
Do the best that you can do;
You may fail, but you may conquer,
See it through!
Black may be the clouds about you
And your future may seem grim,
But don't let your nerve desert you;
Keep yourself in fighting trim.
If the worst is bound to happen,
Spite of all that you can do,
Running from it will not save you,
See it through!

Even hope may seem but futile
When with troubles you're beset,
But remember you are facing
Just what other men have met.
You may fail, but fall still fighting;
Don't give up, whate'er you do;
Eyes front, head high to the finish.
See it through!

The existential crisis of Job: The search for meaning

The phrase " existential crisis" may sound deep and far fetched to you so lets use Job's story to set it up. Let's introduce Job, a wealthy man with kids who do what most rich kids do, they party. He has lots of land. Set up a large farm in your  mind and add some 7000 sheep, 3000 camels, 1000 oxen  and 500 female donkeys. You need a lot of land to hold all those animals! He is a man with so much integrity that one book of the bible is dedicated to him. The question is why did he have so many trials? Everything went wrong in Job's life, yes e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g. It all started with something he could not see in Job chapter 1. God boasts about Job and Satan tells God that the only reason Job serves him is because of the things God does for him.  His proposition is for God to let him , Satan, switch things around so that Job would curse God. God agrees but states that Satan cannot take Job's life.                 ...

Women's Prayer Banquet Become A Better You (B.A.BY) with Pastor Dotun

My notes from Women's Prayer Banquet "Become a Better You" September, 2021. There were so many wisdom nuggets being released at this online event. I just got to write down a few. Men out there will find this information useful as well.  Kids need hands on play-time: puzzles, lego, creativity from drawing e.t.c. This allows them to build creativity. On the other hand, always watching TV will create hyperactivity. (My kid's pediatrician actually taught us this at a yearly checkup, so this is standard medical information as well). This is the reason why a lot of adults cannot meditate, our minds are not calm enough. Excuses are made whether they are valid or not.The 1st person you have responsibility to is yourself. Age, marriage and children are not excuses to give up on yourself. No one is better than you, they just know something that you don't know. Prayer is not a substitute for building skills and building up yourself to establish wealth. Some peopl...
