In my observation I noticed the majority of human beings are fond of believing what others say than what their mind is saying. They live by peoples thought or decisions not trying to fact check if what they are saying is true or false they just run with the majority. I remember one day I was with one of my pastors in church after a Sunday service, then he told me to follow him to one of the members house whose daughter is strong l, on getting there the woman was all set with her bag trying to go out with the sick girl backed, pastor asked how is the girl health but she reply she can't walk. Can you bring the girl down let me talk to her she sluggishly brings her down with a frowned face cause to her it seems we were delaying her from going where she planned to go, The pastor told her to let go to church prayer for the girl with some psalms and Pastor told her to go back home and later asked her where she was going before we came to her house earlier she said to one other church , to do what madam? She replied that they told me to bring her to the church for 7 days if not the baby will die.
You also said wow! She believes the girl will die that's why she's taken her there after bringing her to the church before and the pastor prayed for her and told her what to do that she should just have faith in God, but because of lack of patience she went to another place where they added to her problem by telling her the girl will die. Who told the people that the girl will die? You see as a Christian if you're not being patient enough you will miss your rights and benefits in Christ Jesus. We are fond of believing what people say than what God says about us. You plan on doing something and All of a sudden you stop it because you think it can't be possible WHO TOLD THEE.
The majority have abandoned what could have made them great in life all because of what people are saying. Why believe when you've not tried it at all. Are you that afraid of failure, Oga is part of success I mean (failure). Friends take your stand today and start doing that thing you plan on doing also put it to God in prayer and let's see what happens. If you fail, see it as a learning check why it failed , learn from it and never repeat such again from there you grow without some failure at times we might not learn in some aspects of life. Stop believing in what people will say give it a trial first then you know if its possible or not stop allowing people's word be rhe last upon your life, be the last person to speak and decide what the out come of your life be not from other person. But am not disputing the place of a councellening, so don't get my message wrong.
