WHEN GOD WRITES YOUR STORY…

hen God writes your story, be rest assured it will not end in tragedy. It doesn't matter what names people call you. They say you are a failure? Don't accept that label, that's not God's conclusion about you. Have you been tagged the black sheep of the family and that nothing good can come out of you? Are you constantly meeting with brick wall and as a result you have given up on yourself? Hear me! God has not given up on you so, don't give up on yourself. Those who have written you off will one day be the broadcaster of your exploits but you know, you have to keep up with taking those steps. The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are. Be fearless in your pursuit of what set your soul on fire. Work hard in silence and let your success be your megaphone. The more determined you are to achieve your goal, the greater satisfaction you derive when you achieve it.

One day Thomas Edison came back from school with a letter from his teacher and said to his mum, "My teacher asked that I give this letter to my mum." His mother's eyes were tearful as she read the letter out loud to her child: Your son is a genius. This school is too small for him and doesn't have enough good teachers for training him. Please teach him yourself.

After many, many years, after Edison's mother died and he was now one of the greatest inventors of the century, one day he was looking through old family things. Suddenly he saw a folded paper in the corner of a drawer in a desk. He took it and opened it up. On the paper was written: Your son is addled [mentally ill]. We won't let him come to school any more.

Edison cried for hours and then he wrote in his diary: "Thomas Alva Edison was an addled child that, by a hero mother, became the genius of the century."

Let no man or institution decide how your future will turn out. Some people will never support you because they are afraid of what you might become. There will always be someone who won't see your worth. God has given us power to be the very best. Your present condition is not the last chapter of your life. Just because it's not happening right now, doesn't mean it never will. Sometimes you have to get knocked down lower than you have ever been to stand back up taller than you ever were.

Don't compare your dream with another man's dream. Don't compare your purpose with another. It may be taking you longer to birth your dream when compared with others. But you know what? What you carry is bigger and greater and by the time you deliver, the outcome will eliminate every shame and delays. Don't lose faith when you see others receive answers to their prayers. If you haven't received your own blessings, don't be discouraged. Your time is coming. Your blessings are being processed, prepared, packaged and wrapped up in God's glory. No matter how long it has taken, you will definitely deliver your dreams. God is still writing your story and at the end it will turn out well. You will be a 'best-seller' when God is the Author of the story of your life.
