Lessons from my 39th birthday can not be kept selfishly in my pocket. Sharing is nice, monopoly is bad. Hahaaa! I was glad I lived to see this day. Private Fynn is my witness, I remember stating in one of my write ups that I wanted to live on earth for just 32years. 7years on, I wish I did not think that way ever. Man proposes, God disposes. Nana Ama my sweet daughter is my after 'death' breed and a beautiful creation. Thank you Jesus.
Private Fynn was curious, wanting to know if I was serving a god or in a convenant with any powers. I have sworn to serve the Lord God to the best of my abilities. This I have tried to do and doing to the best of my ability. Lord protect and guide me to do according to your will. Psalm 34:4, 'I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears' Looking back, I can only say Praise be to His name, now and forever. Amen.
The birthday wishes came through various channels; text messages, emails, facebook wall and inbox, phone calls and personal hand shakes. Some were as brief as 'Happy birthday' encouraging as 'Happy birthday, may your wishes be fulfilled' annoying as, 'do not drink your head off today' All these, I accepted in good faith because a huge heart is what God gave me.
My daddy sent me a text message whilst my mum called. "A Happy prosperous aims and objectives well achieved years ahead of you" What else can a father wish his son? You know what? The man is asking for the setting of aims and objectives in my life. He might not know if I already have one but the birthday wish is directional. If you do not have aims and objectives, set some for the years ahead are aims and objectives well achieved years. If I do not have aims and objectives, the years will roll over me. Dad, thank you. I am grateful, honoured and privilleged.
Hahaaaa, Junior sent me a text after I could not answer his call; 'Happy birthday big bro, May all your dreams come true. Enjoy this day and identify God's plan for you' Dreams? My younger brother knows about dreams and thinks I should have some. Dreams fall in line with aims; thinks like dad huh? As religious as he is, he asked me to identify God's plans for me. My dreams may be different from God's plans for me. I guess if it is different, my task will be a difficult one but if it is same, easy task. Identifying the relationship between my dreams and God's plans for me is the most tiresome task. Bro, I have accepted the challenge to search and marry my dream and God's plans for me.
On Afia Schwarzenegar, a young lady met Delay, she told Delay; 'you look like a friend of mine, she is called Delay'. bla bla bla as though the Delay she was talking about was her friend. Truth is, the lady had never set eyes on Delay. Lessons? This supposed friend wants facebook friends to believe he knows me soooooo well he wrote " Happy birthday but do not drink your head off today" Thank God he has deleted this message from the wall. The fact that you come from the same town with someone does not mean you know him inside out. Ask questions, don't talk because people are talking, talk because you want to make sense.
My friends, I am grateful. You wished me well and remembered me on this day. Dreams, aims, objectives, desires, wishes, and all the messages you sent are acknowledged. May the Good Lord grant you all what you wish for me. Amen.
