As I am getting older...

I’m a year older today and I am becoming a man. A man not because of how many ‘bottles’ I can gulp or how many ‘chicks’ I can brood on. A man because God is forming more and more in me; a man because my assignments are becoming more and more clear.

I am leaving a stage which I will never come back to; I am going to a place that I have never been to.

And as only God can guarantee the future of all men, I am working out more dependency on Him. I am striving to have faith.

I am developing new paradigms. I am placing new values on relationships and opportunities. I am respecting people more, no matter their creed or belief.

I am relishing my philosophy that ‘nothing comes on its own.’ I am building with one hand and fighting with the other hand.

I am exuding more love for my ‘Baby’. I am becoming more mindful of what the role of leading a home should be.

I am thinking of the corporations to own, the messages to relay, the lives to change, the generational blessings to perpetuate.

As I am getting older, my resolves are getting stronger. I am thinking – MY LIFE MUST COUNT AND GOD MUST NOT REGRET CREATING ME.
