THE Champions series 63, POEM Titled: Follow Your Heart

 

FOLLOW YOUR HEART

We live in a society

 Where minds are positioned

And our thought conditioned

We’re told what to think and say

What to eat and not to eat

Where to go and not to go

What to wear and not to wear

Our minds are left fallow

Always on the lookout to follow

Unable to make our own choices


As children, we wanted something more

Something more than just warm embrace

We had pictures

pictures of what we wanted once

Stamped to our hearts

We grew up and realized

We had let it go like a common coat

Because we were told…


To follow

Follow the system

Follow religion before conviction

Fashion before innovation

Education before passion

Gratification before distinction

Celebration before determination

Monitivity before creativity


My teacher once said,

Vision precedes competition

Wisdom precedes ambition

Journey not without your brain

Men’s opinions will ruin

But God’s opinion will lift you

Make your decisions and follow your heart.

    Inspiring.
    Often when we come to that valley of decision, we've just got to follow the leading in our heart. And for we with the Holy Ghost, it's a million win.

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 80 TOPIC: WHAT DO YOU LIVE FOR?

    This is a question that always pops up in my mind whenever I want to embark on any project or when I want to make a major decision in my life. The answer to this question has shaped my life, it has helped me to tailor and pattern my thoughts and rise above greed, selfishness, idleness and mediocrity.  Let me ask you this same question what are you living for?  If you are yet to answer this question, it is pertinent you do, because it will shape the way you see the world.  "We are all in the world, but we see it from a different angle." Every time I read about my Lord Jesus I always fascinated because He is a typical example of one who answered this question and lived and died for a world that is not worthy of Him. He lived for just 33years but His impact transcends generations.  Again I ask you; what are you living for or what do you live for? No one is a mistake, no matter you state, whether you're whole or handicap you are not a mistak...

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 62, TOPIC: ARE YOU LIVING OR JUST EXISTING?

  ARE YOU LIVING OR EXISTING?   CONTENT: 1.     DIVINE INVESTMENT 2.     THERE IS AN URGENT NEED TO DISCOVER YOUR PURPOSE   3.     WHAT ARE YOU LIVING FOR? 4.     SOME DANGERS OF NOT ANSWERING THIS QUESTION ?     1. DIVINE INVESTMENT Man is God's investment upon the earth, the earth, He made man cultivate, decorate and make the world inhabitable for all creation. Man in God's eyes is a cultivator and a preserver, but over years’ man has lost touch of this dimension in God, instead of cultivating and preserving, he is destroying. For example, the inventions of men are putting the world on a verge of extinction, today we hear of depletion of the Ozone layer, aberrations created by science, such as turning men into women and women into men. The world has gone gaga...  what are doing about it? or what are doing to make a positive change? you're God's solution to the earth. 2....
