Gratitude Notes IX

-
Several seasons ago,
There was a missionary whose dream and desire to serve,
Brought him to the hinterland of the new nation.
He came with the blessings of his people and collaborators.
They left their comfort zones miles away to put smiles on many faces.
By dint of hard work, courage, faith and consistent efforts,
They established a health facility in the 60s.
With dedication, the incense of this facility offered healing, comfort and relief to the afflicted.
It offered employment, training, education, experience and an environment for people to live and grow.
And yours sincerely was a privileged beneficiary of the shades of opportunity the health facility offered.
Besides the health seekers and health workers, the hospital, and community became a melting pot for various activities.
Farmers, food vendors, market women, drivers, teachers, pupils, relatives, friends, drivers, hairdressers, seamstresses, Christians, Muslims and Traditionalists, and the mentally challenged all had a part to play.
So if a missionaries DESIRE, PRAYER, HARD WORK and services yielded fruits in many areas, then we can also keep doing our best wherever we are.
Cheers to you and all your collaborators for doing something worthwhile.
Cheers to you if you are equally about to start that beautiful project. It's still DOABLE.
Remain Blessed

Don't Rush

Don't rush the process, Because growth is gradual and incremental. Don't rush the procedure, Because there is a reason why the seasons are so. Don't rush the strategy, Because every circumstance is meant to prepare you. Don't rush the methods, Because you need to learn the nuances of life. Don't rush the cycle of this day, Without smiling or learning something new. Perhaps while going through the day, we ought to PAY ATTENTION.  Sending you my best wishes for the new week. Kindly Take care and be good. Greetings. ©KYB ✍🏿28/08/23

A Valuable Duty

-
Image
In our quest to satisfy our daily needs of what to eat and wear, we very often forget or give less attention to the very things that equally needs our care.  Sometimes our busy schedules in search of money or comfort are making us take little care of some pertinent things in our lives that we ought to care about.  Oftentimes, we also become too petty, bemoan and complain too much of our challenges of what's not done or what's still needed to do. Today, in seeking a balance, may we always value the little things like our faith, integrity, concern for the human family. May we ever desire to respect human dignity and be prepared to summon the energies we are blessed with, to make the positive impact we intend to make. May we always be mindful of our duty to CARE, everywhere we find ourselves today. It is an honour to reach you again, this hour. Do have a wonderful day.  Take Care. God bless you.✨ Greetings  ©KYB ✍🏿13/10/2020
