RE: STRIVE FOR MORE!



Are you dissatisfied in life? Are you living below your dreams, hopes and expectations? Do you feel that there is more to you that is being presently showcased in your life?

Do you feel that you deserve more in life but presently you are living way below your life’s standard?
Well many of us are in that place of deep dissatisfaction. The truth of the matter is that we all desire more in life.   We all pray for better places in life and this includes a better position in our homes, in the market place and at our careers.   

It is true that life does not always give us what we deserve. Life gives us what we demand for or better still what we fight for.
We have to fight to take our positions in life. We have to fight to take our place and we have to fight to remain in our positions. As they say even in Freetown there is no free lunch.  Life demands that we fight to take our place.

In life we have to strive for more. We have to strive for more peace, more joy, more grace, more happiness, more riches, more honour and more glory. Striving connotes some level of force and action because nothing good comes easy!

Sitting pretty and behaving that all is good when our conditions and situations are far from this requires that we strive, it requires that we fight for what we want and desire. It requires that we stand up to be counted and stand out to be heard.

We must not allow life happen to us. We must not sit still waiting for the heavens to rain good upon us. We must be actively seen to be taking concrete steps to reach our preferred situations and places. We must not be complacent. We must be active and proactive. We must fight to achieve more in life.  We must strive to be more and to do more because we were not born to be small. We were born to be great and nothing short of being great is acceptable.

We must remain prayerful because we also realize that the battle is not to the strong. Neither is the race to the swift. It is the grace of God in our lives that guarantees that we will make it and that guarantees that we will reach our highest and our best in life.

Striving outside of God or grace is not an option. We must bring God into the equation because God is the ultimate power and the ultimate grace that can ensure that our lives make sense and that our dreams come to pass.

In this season we must strive for more by being more and by doing more because time is nobody’s friend.   What we do not do now we might regret later!  There is so much more that we be and there is so much more that we achieve and there is no better time than now to be all and to do all!
