Oh! What a pity it can be that one lived and died without ever living up to true potential. Just take a moment to imagine this; make sure this will never be you. I once asked someone if she feels she is a mistake in her family and she hurriedly said yes. Ok, I had to rebuke her hurriedly too because actually the situations surrounding her currently made her summit to such assumptions. I may get back to this maybe in the later part of this article.
Many good hearts but very little to show. I only wish you could understand what is locked inside you. One of the ways of discovering your potentials is by going through a personal season of self discovery. You were put we you are for a purpose; no one has ever graduated in your family, no one has ever a government appointment in your family, no one has ever left the walls of your village, state or country in your family, no one has ever done business transactions in foreign valuable currencies in that family and it goes on and on.
Permit me to repeat this; you are there for a purpose; eradicate poverty, give your family a voice, break into new grounds and so on. Adding to that, it can be something far broader than just you and your family.

I could remember my teenage days found friend looking straight at me and saying; ‘your carry light, it is ALL around you but you are not seeing it. Nevertheless, this light will show in the nearest future'. She should have been 15 or 16 years old by then and well, she was able to look into my future.
Where are we heading to in this article? Simple, press for the original you. To fast forward her prophecy, here I am today getting hungry and more hungry on the things of God. Oh! You thought I was mainly an entrepreneur running around to get my daily business going (it is part of it anyway but it is the secondary collection). Jesus said, I am going around doing ‘The father's business’.

There is no hiding and no denying, I have been sent into this generation to save men from their sins by pointing them to Jesus. The timing, the setting is just right, I am not a mistake in any way. It will take me to different nations and continents of the Earth, this I surely know but I am just imagining how I would have underlived destiny if I actually never realised this potential. Consider the people who are at stake groping in darkness, we are talking about a generation where sin is normalised. And what’s my potential? Light. (Luke 4:18-19, Mathew 5:13-16).
Today I was in one of our infant churches and I had to speak the light to the people there. I imagine myself preaching and having God's word to back it up. Ok, this is me that was always shying away from public speaking. Even posting things concerning Jesus on my DM was not something I thought of. Ah! My friends will see it and ridicule me, those days are over; ‘I am a hunter for Christ’ and everyone around me knows this NOW. I TRY to send out a gospel message in writing, images or videos through my DM daily.
To conclude, let me add, the big question of ‘who am I’ and ‘Am I living it’ is worth asking again and again. Strive for the best version of you. Don't let potential die within you, they were meant for service. Let's consider salt and light; the potential of salt is being salty and the potential of light is to shine. Refuse to under live.
