These were the words to my troubled soul from the Lord at midnight while I struggled to get some rest, I knew I was worried, I knew alot is yet to be done but he said to me "KEEP BUILDING".
These words struck me and then I imagined several building I have seen that were not yet to be completed, how rough they were, the errors along the line of construction that gets fixed before continuation, the mess of even mixing the sand and cement, when you look at the plan of a house it looks beautiful but without the knowledge of a building plan; you would only admire it, but it takes an expert in such field to really see the beauty even before it's been created.
God told me clearly to take a look at two completed building structures and I did and for hours he kept teaching me how our various lives where likened to a finished building of which one was poorly constructed but was done timely also, while the other was a master piece which needed time to get to perfection because of the purpose it is to serve, the former was meant to be used for commercial purpose and so the owner only cared about his profit while the latter was being built strictly for the president of the country and as such cannot be rushed.
I am sure you already know where I am going with this, because even in cases where both are for commercial purposes they will both bear different prices based on their location, quality and capacity.
"A PLANTAIN TREE GROWS FASTER THAN AN ORANGE TREE BUT CAN EASILY BE PULLED DOWN BY THE WIND BECAUSE IT'S NOT DEEP ROOTED AS THE ORANGE TREE".
So He said keep building, don't get distracted by who started first or who has gone ahead, the fruit you will bear is for generations to come, they will continually and continuously pick from you and you cannot serve them with a weak foundation he said.
I know this is the case for a lot of people reading this post right now, but HEY can I tell you to keep building even though it doesn't make sense right now; can I tell you to find your purpose and stay consistent with it unwavering. I believe it was STEVE HARVEY who said: IT'S THE SAME THING YOU DID TO GET $10 THAT WILL ALSO GET YOU $1000.
I told a friend few days back that life has taught me to always do what I have love and passion for so when the going gets tough, my love pulls me through it. So, I want to tell you same thing God told me: "KEEP BUILDING", your life is your master piece; so take your time and put in all the details you need to make it a MONUMENT. YOU'RE SPECIAL AND YOU MATTER TO GOD SO BE IT A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD,WITH YOUR SPOUSE,YOUR CAREER,YOUR HOME KEEP BUILDING,often times we focus and channel our efforts towards changing what we feel are our weaknesses that we ignore our strength,i wonder who told us that the said weakness is not a feature to beautify our lives.
Enough said if you've started building then don't stop,if you haven't then start and i sincerely pray we all get to the point where we enjoy building because it may look like nothing now but put a bucket outside while it's drizzling and overtime you have a full bucket of water,it will add up and it will make sense i promise.
As I am allowing the Lord to use me to inspire you, let God use you to follow me ejor. Your data will nor finish I promise and when you share it you will give me ginger to keep taking to you along in this my journey of life and purpose.
Stay blessed, stay safe and keep building!
