LIFE IS A TEACHER


Life is a teacher, it teaches those who are ready to learn and understand the mysteries embedded in it. I will implore those who come across this piece to read it to the end, there are lessons to learn from it. This incident happened to a member of my church after evening service on Friday. Her son unknowingly locked up the only car key inside the car. Everyone present was troubled because we can see the key at the back seat, but no one can pick it up. All the car windows had been windup except one with little opening. One thing struck my mind; this is how people are beholding their blessings but they could not possess it because of physical and spiritual barriers of life.  Various wise suggestions and counsels were proffered, but non yielded intended result. So also people offer what they think are best counsels and suggestions to us in life; but oftentimes these counsels confuse us more and also make us commit more blunders. We attempted to unlock the hook from the opening, but it was an abortive attempt. Some paths in life are seemed to be right way to reach our destinations, but they complicate the journey of life more.
A call was put through to the expert on this issue, but he said she should wait till following day because is already late. Another word struck my mind; this is how circumstances of life hinder many people from reaching out to their helpers, sometimes cut them off from their helpers. A long wire was entwined together to unlock the side hook, but it was too weak to hook up the lock. Another word struck my mind; this is how many are using wrong tactics to address issues of life, but the end result will be frustrating with pains and agonies. It gotten to a stage that she was fed up; but people were bringing more suggestions. Loved ones offer words of encouragements when we are fed up with life; but oftentimes they do not take away the pains and agonies.
Eventually, someone brought a long iron rod. The rod hooked up the key, but in the processing of drawing the rod, the key fell into an obscure area. Another word struck my mind; this is how people miss out at the junction of possessing their possessions. All hope was lost, but at last someone brought another rod with anchor. The brother placed the rod through the opening and reach out for the hook. Alas! he got the hook, everybody was happy. What took us over an hour with no result was opened by a brother who came at the last minutes when all hope was lost.
Life will never treat us like king or queen; your expectation is the key to your manifestation. No matter problems life poses, always know that there is a way out of it. Though failures are inevitable; you will success at the end, if you can try again and again.
