TRUTH BE TOLD
It takes a wise person to set a trap without filling in any bait, the trap itself is the bait and also a trap,as a good listener and a kind hearted woman like most people will say I am I have sacrificed selflessly, I was always putting people before myself giving all I had keeping no love for myself loving my children sometimes became a chore,because by the time I have finished consoling my friends married and unmarried,giving loans to people who walk into shops to buy toys and fancy stuff while my children will have to make do with what mummy could provide not knowing that mummy could actually do better,they still loved me unconditionally,I was far spent and living and thriving on superficial or borrowed love !
Sometime last year I had a sudden epiphany and realized ' I was only of use because I was a good listener ,a reliable friend ,madam fix it, the go to girl who would always give all and reserve none for herself, and I prayed and sought the counsel of God and my children and God told me to put him first and my kids next and then only then will I find peace,and I did as advised and I found my peace ,
I lost a lot of 'friends' but I wasn't worried I had my Jesus
I felt lonely but I wasn't worried I have my children the bond grew stronger and I got to understand them more and love them more,
My meager earnings suddenly became sufficient, I started shopping for my children more often than before ,instead of borrowing to friends and end up quarreling when payment is due or helping people who didn't need help I stopped being the assistant husband and human ATM to adults who have been granted more opportunities than I ever had, I FOUND PEACE, I was content,
I just realized I had absolute control over my temper I wasn't angry at the world anymore I never questioned God instead all I did was praise him and thank him,
Yes it is not everyone that comes to you for help that truly needs help sometimes God is preparing them for the life they have ahead DO NOT INTERRUPT!
Most often than not people are quick to tell you stories remember there's this side the other side and then THE TRUTH !
Peace brings happiness and I am glad I found my peace therefore I am happy,
I am not afraid to loose more friends to me they are frenimies,I know who my true friends are they have never drained me !
Being focused and at peace is priceless that's where I am now and I have watched the amazing results of having the grace of God see me through no distractions no drama PEACE IS BLISS,
It is better to be called your name than to be described by what you can offer,
THE CHOICES WE MAKE IN LIFE LEAD US CLOSER TO OUR GOD GIVEN DESTINY BE CAREFUL ABOUT THE CHOICES YOU MAKE , THEY CAN EITHER MAKE YOU RISE OR LEAD YOU TO YOUR RUIN !
