Travails and Triumphs of Great Destinies (6)

i.             If Your Destiny is Great, It would Impact Lives

Welcome to part 6 of this article. What goal are you pursuing? Will your goal impact positively on the lives of people? If your destiny is great, it would impact lives positively. We are all created to be a solution to the problem of people. We are created to be the answer to the questions of people.

Men and women of great destinies are never found wanting in this respect. Anytime a problem surfaces, rest assured, God has equipped someone to deal with that problem. No problem is permitted to exist without a solution in place. The solution may not be available now, but the fact is: God has equipped someone to proffer solution to the problem.

What is the problem God has created you to solve? You need to discover it. This is because your success, prosperity and indeed your destiny is anchored on it.

Your life is not supposed to be stagnant. Like stagnant water, a stagnant life is unhygienic, unproductive and unprofitable. 

Persons of great destiny like Mahatma Ghandi, Martin Luther King Jnr., Margaret Thatcher, Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, Golda Meir, to mention but a few, impacted positively on the lives of their generation so much so that they are still and will continue to be remembered forever.

Men and women of great destiny focus on projects that benefit humanity. But people of little destinies focus only on what they and their family members stand to benefit. Great destiny goes beyond self-centredness.

IF WE ARE GOING TO BE THE BEST GOD WANTS US TO BE, WE HAVE GOT TO COME OUT OF OUR SELF-CENTRED LIVES AND GO OUT OF OUR WAY TO HELP SOMEONE IN ANY WE CAN.

We are created for a life of service to humanity. We are expected to help anyone that comes our way in any way we can, irrespective of our status in life.

We don’t have to be millionaires before we can help people. Money is not everything. In fact, there are many things that are more valuable than money.  Some little things like word of encouragement, message of hope and motivation, imparting knowledge and skill, training a child, praying for someone, establishing motherless babies home, or charity organization, just to mention a few, are more valuable than money.

INTERESTINGLY, YOUR SUCCESS, PROSPERITY AND DESTINY ARE TIED TO THE SERVICE YOU RENDER TO HUMANITY. If it is a blog/website that you can set up to provide valuable information, render quality service, sell invaluable products, or educate and entertain people, you are actually impacting lives in a positive way.

If it is a book you can write and sell to people to help them be the best that God wants them to be, this is real service you would render to humanity.

If you have been running from pillar to post looking for ways of achieving great success, you better get it clear now: running up and down will not help you. The arm of flesh will not help you as service to humanity will.

YOUR KEY TO SUCCESS IN LIFE IS SERVICE. THE GOLDEN WISDOM OF THE AGES IS: FIND A NEED AND FILL IT. Your responsibility is to look for what humanity needs. Then, you devote your life to producing, packaging and marketing it. When you do this, you will have a great destiny.

Until I come your way soon, go and find what the society needs and provide it for them! Then, you will triumph over travails. Go and live victoriously!

PS: part seven, which is the last part of this article, will be coming your way soon. Watch out for it and make sure you don’t miss it!
