I am very sure that almost everyone can relate to this. While growing up, we all had our "indecisive" goals but turned out to be something/somebody else.
Initially for me, it was the dream of becoming a musician that was key in my mind then all of a sudden, like I was hypnotized, I saw myself as a business woman; "la femme d'affaires" was what I kept screaming at that period.
Within a short while, I became a medical doctor all in my head and that is what I began to chase. *laughs* right now, I am sure you would think that I am the most confused person on earth. But well, I realize I'm not the only one who had all of these issues.
This life is quite funny; as you have proposed things to do in mind, economic, social, psychological and emotional factors come to play and somewhat thwart all your plans.
Hmm, I eventually did not study anything relating to all my "dreams" so to speak. I found myself being a CHEMIST by certificate.
How ironic, all my "dreams" did not really define who I really would like to be. Who I WANTED to be.
As I became aware of all the socio-economic factors around me and those that are attached to my being a Nigerian, I then went back to ask GOD to help me see who i really am supposed to be. I said, "GOD, I know I act confused, but help me see the real me doing that which I am supposed to do and being that which I'm supposed to be".
Trust me, HE never fails you know. I eventually became the business woman I always thought i'ld be. I fell in love with what I do, seeing smiles on the faces of people, clients is what I like doing. Beautifying lives is my calling and though I haven't really touched all that I have seen through HIS eyes as to what I would like to be, I am glad HE is gradually taking me there.
I, see myself in the light of reaching out to SOULS for CHRIST through all the mediums available for me and with everything HE has blessed me with. An evangelical; you might call it. I am still in the process of being a life changer, a life transformer and a pace setter.
As I sat to play back my life like a movie, I got the understanding that everything I had in mind to do was centered around "CHANGING LIVES". Yes! Changing lives. That is what my life is centred around. I know that I am a "work-in progress", but I would eventually be that which GOD wants me to be.
A LIFE CHANGER.
My dears, who would you really like to be?
Have you discovered that which gives you peace of mind?
Have you discovered what your real purpose is?
Have you found out in God's light what you truly should be?
Are you doing what you really should do?
Big questions.
REFLECT!
