That one time I cheated.
I can be a crook lol. In JSS 2 I used to take French as a subject and because I didn’t read I would exchange my exams papers with my classmate and she would do it for me. You know what’s worse? I failed every time I did that 😭
Like I would hustle so much and still get like 20/70 in exam.
I stopped actively exchanging papers in like JSS3 but I still used to talk in the exam hall. At a point in my life (like 300 level) I decided that I couldn’t serve two masters. If I wanted it to be God all the way, then it had to be God all the way.
I consider that point of my life pivotal because from there it was God or God.
It feels like some people cheat their way through life and are always ahead of you. It’s like queuing on a line and some people cut the line and finish ahead. It happened to me recently lol the girl in front of me said something along the lines of “sometimes being good doesn’t pay” because we stayed on the queue.
I need you to have a fresh perspective when it comes to this. I will not dabble into things that are not of God to get ahead.
The Bible says
“Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But we will remember the name of the Lord our God.”
Psalms 20:7 NKJV
I also want you to seek first the kingdom of God and it’s righteousness and every other thing shall be added unto it. Seek the righteousness of God! Don’t let the world deceive you ! You can get ahead without getting your hands dirty.
All good and perfect gift come from God of whom there is no variance or shadow of turning. If it is God you won’t have to compromise your stance, values, morals, righteousness or consecration.
Trust the lord with all your hearts and lean not on your understanding. Acknowledge him and he will make your path straight.
So when you have the chance to choose between your consecration and the pleasures of this world. Always choose your consecration. The smaller is always contained in the more. May the lord give you grace to understand this.
Rooting for you as always ! ❤️
