Once upon a time, a dog approached an
elephant to get into a child bearing competition.
In 3 months the dog gave birth to 6
puppies. In the next 3 months the dog gave birth to yet another set of puppies.
The elephant finally gave birth after
20 months by which time the dog had given birth to over 30 puppies and was
mocking the elephant into believing that it had won the competition.
The elephant had a few words for the
dog when the baby elephant came out after 20 months.
I can see you had fooled yourself
into believing that you had won the competition.
I think you can appreciate now that:
1. I don't give birth to puppies
2. When I do give birth, the calf
will be ready to face the world on its own
3. The combined weight of your 36
puppies is less than a fifth of my calf's weight
4. The moment my calf steps into this
earth it makes an immediate great impact as if no dog was ever born.
I thought that was amazing.
I have observed something under the
sun. The fastest runner doesn't always win the race, and the strongest warrior
doesn't always win the battle. The wise sometimes go hungry and the skillful
are not necessarily wealthy. And those that are educated don't always lead
successful lives. It's all about being in the right place at the right time
plus a right attitude.
I want you to think like an elephant.
Don't envy cheap quick success. For as long as you are in the right place, your
chance is coming and by the signs of time it won't be long.
You are guaranteed to make it in
life. Maintain your faith in God even when it looks like its all over for you.
Looks can be deceptive but the Word
remains forever.
In 1999 Brazil 4. Germany 0
2002 Brazil 2. Germany 0
2004 Brazil 1. Germany 1
Total: Brazil 7. Germany 1
2014 Brazil 1. Germany 7
When its your time, God will correct
10yrs of mistakes with 1 event.
Patience is a virtue, so don't give
up! Remain blessed!
