BEING A LADDER FOR SOMEONE// Clean planet activity for today 6-6-2024.
I'm so glad to participate in this beautiful contest. I decided to title as being a ladder for someone. No matter how wealthy or rich you are and you couldn't raise any body or become a succor to someone hmmm it's a waste. In life, you don't just reciprocate with people that loves you alone but you tried to create a balance.
Life is like a dice which has basically two phases. The positive and the negative or the up and down. It could also be looked at as bitter or sour. These two dimensions of life coexist currently amongst humans. Where the problem lies is the ability to integrate or intercept between them. Life is a process and a journey. At times the journey or process begins from the up while at times it begins from the down. Whichever phase yours begins, it's expected to be optimistic and keep soaring towards showing love and care to others.
At a phase, especially when one begins to experience the sour dimension, hmmm it can be so frustrating because people may tend to label you with different nomenclature. At this moment, it will appear as if there's no help that can ooze out from someone. It's sometimes called the wilderness experience because everywhere would seems to be darkened. Help becomes very rare. Situation becomes very tensed and everywhere seems dry. Never you give up despite the tough moment because tough time don't last forever but tough people do. There's no champion without a challenge therefore brace up to face it.
I would like to share the time where I had to sacrifice everything for the sake of a brother I saw for the first time after fellowship. I became a ladder for him. It all happened during my pursuance for a higher education. I was elected as the prayer secretary of my fellowship on campus then. On this faithful day which coincidentally was prayer meeting day. I was the one ministering. After sharing the good news, I led them into intensive prayers where we all enjoyed the presence of God. It will interest you to know that I had no food stuff, no plenty in my pocket but I was just bubbling as if I had a lot on me.
I was the type that can dress beautifully to class despite my financial status. That day, I wore my ironed packaged shirt with my last money then. Hmmmm remember the value of money was great that was in 2008. Men I was shocked to my bones immediately I dropped from the pulpit, this young man came begging for the exact amount of money in my pocket. I started agitating in my spirit but later I was calm and I moved to remove everything and give him. It was one of my highest sacrifice done during that study. I needed the money but he had cogent need more than me. I became a ladder for him. Immediately I have him, he was so happy and left. God surprised me with lots of blessings that same day through others.
There was another incidence that occurred during my first degree. There was this lady that was running her Diploma course. She came and met me for assistance. As at that time, I had no money but just a token. She needed money to complete her school if not, she won't be able to write her exams. I knew her background and I have been like a family friend to them. I quickly empty my wallet and gave her all. There were many other incidence that I had to give my clothes instantly to help an aged man.
You must not have everything before you help someone but the little you have can be shared. It could be materials, it could be advice, it could be resources etc. I believe everyone has one thing or the other to give. Please a ladder today for someone.
Thanks for reading through my post for this engagement. Thanks to all the management for putting this prompt.
