Trivialities And Competitions

by Olawale Ogunsola  
6/19/2023 / Leadership

The God who created all things is fair to all men. For all that happens to you, you are responsible. For what you become and will become, you are to be blamed or commended. The Lord had apportioned twenty-four hours to each person to be used according to his will. No wealthy or highly placed man can add or subtract from his allotted time of twenty-four hours.
How do you spend your time? A man of God once said that he doesn't spend his time, he invests it.

Acceptable and worthy of emulation.

How do you handle your time? What do you do with it? What you do with each minute, hour, or day has direct effects on your entire life and one day, you will give account to your Maker of how you have lived your life.

Trivialities.
Numerous people spend their time on trivial things. Things that are not important or relevant to their lives. They spent their scarce time on those things that do not, and cannot add value to their lives.
Do you call it running after vanities? Yes! It is of no profit to you to chase things that have no everlasting value. Things that start here and end here on the Earth.

Competition
In this life, you have been given twenty-four hours to walk on your track of life. Everyone has his own. Do you walk on your own? Failure to identify your track and walk on it will lead to your engaging in unhealthy and needless competition.
This is not profitable. Run your race in life. Let other people run theirs as divinely ordained by God.

Someone may achieve a feat before you, you have no problem, that is his time. Your time to achieve a great feat is coming; wait for it.

Have you been a spectator of other people's success? At the appointed time, others will celebrate you. Do not engage in any frivolous competition at all. You have your time of revelation to your generation, it is not too late. The wise counsel of King Solomon is relevant here:
[11]"Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end." Ecclesiastes 3.

God is never wrong or late, He does everything rightly and perfectly. Don't waste your life on trivialities and competitions! Stay blessed and prepared for the imminent coming of the Lord.
