Yield….
U can’t bear it alone
Agbara e O ka!!!!!
If you think you have the strength…
ask…Mr Musa Yar’dua
When He said take no thought
Of what you’ll eat, drink or wear
And that you cant add one inch to your strength by Worrying
He wasnt lying
Something happened to me recently
I fell in love with a beautiful damsel
And did everything in the book of relationship,
To make it work
From being accountable to her
To being very honest and open
But you know what?
My selfish attitude
Brought me back to square one
Instead of opening up to me
She stuck to an earlier decision that we remain friends
Just friends and nothing more
Was her words to me
To be precise I was hurt, disappointed and angry
I almost wanted to forget about her completely
But…
I thought of how far I’ve come with her
Thought of how much influence she has wielded
Thought of the changes she has brought to my life
And I said…
There can still be a way!!
So into the labor room I went
After a few minutes of “pushing”
One word came to me and it was….
“Rest”
You can’t handle this issue your way’
Let me help you
Hand it over to me
I did in the spirit but it took another full week for my flesh
To completely yield
We spoke yesterday as friends
And I didn’t feel any ‘finickies’ towards her as before
I still love her
I still pray the Prov 31 Prayer over her and other Pauline prayers
I still do all this but I’ve mastered the emotion through God
And even though i don’t call her often or think about her often
She’s still on my mind
Only now I’ve Yielded the weight
and made a conscious choice to practice Heb 4:3-11
So let this be a lesson to y’all
Yield the weight and don’t be selfish
Why waste your strength and waste away for NOTHING?!!!!
This would have worked better as prose, den u wld hv bn able to expand it further
