We Are No Accident of Creation…
But An Instrument of Progress
God had his own plan and agenda of how he intended our lives to come out to be. It is up to
us to connect the dots in the puzzle of life. The choices we make in life will determine which pieces of the puzzle will fit, and which puzzle will even get finished. Some puzzles will be left as unsolved mysteries. Those are the pieces that get left in a bucket or box and simply left on a shelf.
We must live our lives as if we were pieces of a puzzle that were meant to be complete. And it’s ok to put in, and take out, and try all different shapes, while we are working on our goal of completion. And sometimes you must go backwards in order to go forward, and always remember Sankofa. We must truly understand its meaning.
The“ Sankofa Bird” is a mythical Ghanaian bird that faces forward with his head turned backwards, signifying that we must look to the past to build the present and future. If you don’t gain “Value in the Valley” you will continue to go through the same valleys, year after year. Stop. Be still. Be patient, so you can understand the lesson. Did you hear something; in your mind, in your heart, in your spirit? Did you feel something deep down? Did it make any sense?
We are no accidents of creation but we should be working as instruments of progress. It’s time to stand up and stand out, and be who we were created to be. Let us recognize the preciousness of time, and stop wasting it. There’s so much work to be done. No one can tell you who you are, only you can discover you. Others will try and tell you who they think you are. They know who you are, but they don’t know who they are. Once you realize you are a chosen one, you can discover your life’s purpose. Your life only then will be pointed in the right direction. Then with all your pointed time you wait your chance.
Most people don’t know what their purpose is therefore they run around confused. When You know your purpose you realize that you were no accident of creation, but God knew exactly what he was doing when he created you and me. His plan was that all his children could come together as musical instruments and perform this amazing colorful symphony. He gives us a reason, a season, or a lifetime. So that’s why you meet so many colorful people. And when you move on quickly to a new instrument, that’s called a season; when you meet people who evolve with you that’s called a lifetime.
This orchestra won’t just come together it’s going to take a lot of hard work, and perseverance, and courage, and a whole lot of knowledge of right from wrong. Speak the truth in a place where honesty is never mentioned, Be bold, go forward, while others stay behind. You are the pictures of progress now it’s time to fill the frame.
