Hello, everyone, today is going to be fun but has an important lesson to learn about, I want to welcome you to a lovely weekend, sit tight and meditate upon the words as you read along.
Today story is all about my life when I was just around the age of eight(8) to nine (9) years old those days was really rough but I was also a happy young boy living with his father in a single room, go to a school over three to four miles off from home every day to school with no complaint and a lot of pleasure going to school.
I knew my father by then can't afford me transport or neither lunch, because he was out of a job, there is no way for him to hand salary, but his words of courage were enough for me to take my bag and go to school, so I made good use with my long legs hahaha.
We are so happy with each other we never complain about our situation or neither visiting people asking for help, asking for food or money to people, my dad sees it as a burden to ask for help, my dad teach my one thing I will never forget in life which is "Contentment and Given".
One day when we were about to go to bed papa ask me if I am ok he wants to discuss something important with me, I said yes papa I will never be busy for my papa we laugh about it" hahaha, I was so happy and anxious to hear because I know whenever papa asks for such moment the result is going to a positive one.
He said son the reason why I want to talk to you is that I want to start a syndicate so we can raise money to sustain our life but he wants to know what I have to say about it, I just ask papa one question if he first thinks about the advantage and disadvantages.
He said yes, everything is in place, Papa starts the syndicate, at first he starts with a small number of kids, due to the performance of the kid's, parents start doing advert to another parent too, the syndicate start moving to another level.
Father starts to raise money so we can manage life, I use to trike to school to and fro, father decided to give me five (5) hundreds leones to pay transport and also use for lunch, four hundred leones for transportation to and fro one (1) hundred leones for lunch.
I was so happy to hear that from my papa but on the other hand I thought about one thing, dad will not be able to give me five hundred leones every day so I decided to trike every day going to school and take transport after school, that help me to raise every day two hundred leones.
I went to a carpenter man and made me a small box which I use to keep my money, sometimes when there is nothing at home I open my small box to help sustained us papa was so happy with the way I handle my money issue.
One day when triking to school chewing popcorn which we call in our local language "broke teeth" hahaha I put it in my pocket count it and think about the distance it can take me to.
But there was something bordering me about my school, I suppose to pay for something in school but papa can't afford that money at that time, but I decided to go to school by faith since that is the last day the headmaster gave us.
On my way going I met on of my uncle I greet him and we talk and ask about my dad after which he dashes me some money, I want to refuse but I seriously need the money I took the money and say thank you uncle "hahaha" when I reach to school I was the first to pay I told dad about it when I return home.
The lessons here are clear to understand, parents should always befriend with their kids, sometimes distancing your child causes them to be a drug addict and end up to live in the street, make your child see you as his/her best friend.
My faith leads me to joy because I know that it is going to be ok with me by faith, God sends someone to solve my problem on my way to school, never you look low or think negative about yourself because God hears everyone it only works at his own time.
Ephesians 6:4
Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Psalm 46:10 Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!
John 8:24 unless you believe that I am who I claim to be, you will die in your sins.
