It's in you

Ecclesiastes 9:2 KJV
All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath.

The first part of this verse caught my attention: all things come alike to all men: an event to the righteous, and the same event to the wicked, the clean and unclean, and I'll add the rich and the poor. Everybody has the same measure in proportion of whatever everyone needs to make a footprint in the sand of time. I hear people say they couldn't be who they wished to be because their parents were not wealthy and they couldn't afford what they needed to make a success. Others give excuse of time, and flimsy excuses.

The truth is that we may not have it all the same, alike, but we all have it in the same proportion. Where one might have wealth, another can have the brains to make the same amount of wealth. Where one might have strength, another can have a faith strong enough to match up with any strenght. David had a faith strong enough to conquer Goliath's strength, and he had the victory. Apple inc. hadn't a facilty where they could produce computers or make researches, but they had the optimism and faith to make it happen.

You are not short of what you need to be your best. You are responsible for your life. Everything you need to make it to the top is right with you, and the faster you realise nobody's better than you in privileges, the better for you.

Look deep within you, locate that thing that makes you stand out. It might be your talent, your style of thinking, or even a skill you had opportunity to learn which you developed a passion for. It's in you!

Building Capacity

The teen and youth ages are transitory periods. The adulthood is dependent on them and the childhood look forward to them. Major changes occur that shapes one during this period. Decisions and choices during this period are key too. The parable of the talents illustrates a scenario of three servants- their ages not told. They were given talents which can be likened to an investment. The spotlight is on the fact that they were given according to their "ability" and not "piety." A mentor once said they were given to capacity. If piety were a consideration, the servant who ended up with one talent should have had the most: he was pious; he feared his master the most  and wouldn't want to offend him in any way; but he hadn't capacity worth investing more than one talent. The above is an evidence that proves the fact that nobody is willing to invest much in anybody without capacity, enough to contain. The amount of content is dependent on the capacity of ...
