Smiling so hard was what I could do when reading this prompt cos at a gun point? It is the least thing I could ever have imagined in my life to experience before I can be able to say many or just one thing that I am ever grateful for in my life.
If you had been coming across my posts on related or similar prompts as this, then you would know the very one thing I do talk about every now and then. Not because there is no other thing I could say or list that I am grateful for but without this one thing I am always persistent on, then how do I enjoy the rest of the things I am also grateful for.
It is no other thing than the fact that I AM GRATEFUL FOR LIFE. The breath that I breathe is not of my own because it can as well be taken away from me when I know not or when I am even aware and there is nothing I can do to stop it.
As someone who has heard about people who have lost their lives, people of valuable dreams and visions, people who already even had it achieved and had no fears anymore of how to make it in life but still, their achievements and the wealth they've acquired could not buy them life when death came knocking.
Just like my usual statement whenever I go out to minister, I would always remind people how much debts they would have been owing God if he were to be collecting money for the oxygen we breathe in even if he wants to dash us free for carbondioxide since it is a waste product.
If we were even meant to be paying, I am sure that no average man or poor man would be alive today as all tycoons and wealthy people would have been the only ones accessing the oxygen room to purchase for themselves and generations to come. Poor man and their children would have just been dying on the street like fowls cos how much can we afford and for how many days?
I am not better than anyone who has encountered any form of insecurity in the nation or evil in the world, neither do I have any special packages of appreciation I give to God on behalf of me, family and well-wishers for us to be alive, hale and hearty cos I'm sure those affected are either more appreciative than me or we're of the same level.
I do not take this LIFE for granted and it is something I am ever grateful for every now and then and would always talk about as long as I am breathing cos there is no greater blessing than the gift of Life of me and my loved ones.
So, even when no gun is available to be placed on my head, it is what I can pleasantly and wonderfully talk about with no gallop affecting my flow of words and regardless of what my situation may be currently.
Just like the popular saying that WHEN THERE IS LIFE THEN THERE IS HOPE.
It is only someone who has breathe the last breath that wont have access to a hope of a better tomorrow anymore.
