Often times we are too busy complaining about our lives and the things we lack we forget to be thankful for the things we have. We rarely value the people around us; family, friends, neighbors, strangers, colleagues, acquaintances, we do not know how much time we or they have left, yet we never try to make their stay comfortable. Some of us wait till we have something to celebrate before we are thankful, others wait till its their birthday before they visit an orphanage or give alms, at least that's a move in the right direction . What are the rest of us doing?..... We sit on our bums criticizing the world and all its wrongs, blaming the Government for impoverishment and poverty, yet we do nothing to help. When was the last time you did something selfless for a stranger?.
Lets take a cue from this TV Personality Ariyike Akinbobola, This young woman never ceases to amaze, She is not only ambitious, she's a caring wonderful mother of two and a lovely wife. Ariyike is Host and owner of the BOBW (Best of both worlds networking event) where she helps showcase upcoming talents as well as help businesses connect. Ariyike, effortlessly joined the GHETTO LOVE BACK TO SCHOOL PROJECT helping kit young less-privileged kids. it might not have been all the kids in the world, but she joined in making a difference to the lives of these few.
Do not wait till you have the world before giving, and never think you have too little to give, the Bible says "Give and it shall be given unto you good measure pressed down, shaken together shall men give unto your bosom". I don't want to sound like a cliche, but it is true that a hand that is open is one ready to receive.
Do something selfless today, Earn your place in paradise, Give a little love, even if it's a smile.
P.S
Love is patient and kind.
