A RED LIGHT IS NOT A DEAD END.

A RED LIGHT IS NOT A DEAD END:

Beloved brethren, today, I want to encourage someone with the following wise saying:

"A Red Light is not a dead end.

Wait for the Yellow Light, 

and then the Green Light."

Setbacks and obstacles, symbolized by the Red Light, are not permanent. 

They are temporary pauses in the journey of life.

Red Lights in our journeys are opportunities to:

Re-assess,

Re-organise,

Re-energize,

Re-strategize

Re-group, 

Repair, and prepare for the next phase.

This period of waiting, while frustrating, can be a time for growth, reflection, and even discovering new paths.

Sometimes, the Green Light is just around the corner. 

Sometimes, the Green Light is hidden behind some Red Lights and some Yellow Lights.

A Disappointment today, does not cancel your future Appointments.

Keep your Faith Alive.

A Red Light is not a Dead End.

People Have Multiple personalities

PEOPLE HAVE MULTIPLE PERSONALITIES:

Beloved brethren, today I want us to unpack the following wise nugget:

"People have multiple personalities. Pay close attention to small details, to discover some hidden traits in a person, before you commit to a long term relationship with anyone"

This wisdom nugget is an important reminder of the complex nature of human beings. 

People often present a carefully groomed version of themselves to the world: 

a "Public Face" designed to create a favorable impression.

However, beneath this surface lies a collection of traits, beliefs, and behaviors that may be quite contrary to what we see. 

These "hidden traits" can manifest in subtle ways: 

•In the way someone treats a waiter, 

•In their reactions to unexpected challenges, or 

•In their choices when faced with a moral dilemma.

Paying close attention to these seemingly insignificant details can provide valuable insights into a person's true character. 

It is like peeling back the layers of an onion, revealing the deeper truths that lie beneath.

The Bible, in 1 Samuel 16:7 KJV, reminds us that:

"Man looks on the outward appearance, 

but the Lord looks on the heart." 

This verse highlights the importance of looking beyond superficial appearances to understand the true nature of a person.

Building lasting relationships requires a deep understanding of the other person. 

Take your time to observe, listen, and truly see beyond the surface, if you intend to build a long lasting relationship with any one.

The man you see on Sundays, 

is very different from the man people see on Mondays.

IDEAS COME AS SEEDS NOT FRUITS.

IDEAS COME AS SEEDS, NOT FRUITS:

Beloved brethren, never dismiss an idea simply because it is not clear.

Ideas come as SEEDS not FRUITS. 

A wise philosopher said:

"Ideas don't come out fully formed, they become clearer when you work on them" 

At first, it is just a tiny spark, a fleeting thought. 

It needs nurturing, care, and attention to grow into something magnificent.

Don't wait for the perfect, fully-formed idea to appear. Embrace the initial spark, the fleeting thought, and write it down.

Begin to work on it.

Research, brainstorm, experiment, and discuss it with others.

There will be moments of frustration, doubt, and even setbacks. 

But with perseverance, the idea will gradually take shape.

Next time you encounter a seemingly vague or incomplete idea, don't dismiss it. 

Start working on it to bringing it to life. 

You will be surprised at the beautiful and unexpected results that unfold as you work on it.

Don't Trush Any Idea in 2025.

Fasting and Stones

FASTING and STONES.

Beloved brethren, during fasting, the temptation to turn stones to bread is very real.

Turning a stone to bread is a big miracle, but a miracle meant to derail your mission. 

A shortcut meant to cut short your assignment. 

Turning a stone to bread, is a miracle meant for Instant Self Gratification. 

It's satisfying your immediate physical needs at the cost of your tomorrows assignments. 

Turning a stone to bread means using divine power or divine gifts for personal gains.

Remember, any suggestion from Satan, is never meant for your benefit: no matter how sweet and logical it may appear to be.

Trusting the devil for advice, is setting yourself up, for failure and shame.

A stone turned to bread will turn back to stone while in the Stomach !!!.

Don't try.

Leave stones alone.

Don't Ignore Red Flags

DON'T IGNORE RED FLAGS IN A RELATIONSHIP. 

My beloved brethren, marriages and relationships are very precious, and they deserve to be nurtured at all times, and at some premium prices.

Unfortunately, they can be fragile and easily damaged by seemingly small issues. 

One of the most crucial aspects of maintaining a healthy relationship is recognizing and addressing Red Flags early on time.

Cheating and unfaithfulness, while devastating, can often be detected through subtle signs, if you pay close attention to small details. 

Remember, Song of Solomon 2:15 KJV,

"Take us the foxes, 

the little foxes, 

that spoil the vines: ......"

A small fox, is a fox, and not a cat.

A small snake, is a snake,......it will never grow to something nicer. 

Be mindful of your partner's behavior and trust your gut instincts. 

If something feels off, don't dismiss it. 

Engage in open and honest communication to address any Little Reds Frags.

This will resolve future conflicts and building a stronger, more fulfilling relationships.

Now you know.

You are a little wiser.

Leadership and Criticism

LEADERSHIP and CRITICISM.

My beloved Kenyan. Criticism is an inevitable part of leadership. 

No leader can operate in a bubble, shielded from feedback, both positive and negative.

No community or society that can afford to give their leaders the luxury of an environment free from, Criticism, Offences, False Accusations, Insults etc".

Every enviable occupation has "Occupational Hazards". 

Unfair Criticism, False Accusations, Name Calling, Unwarranted Insults, are part of Leadership Occupational Hazards. 

A good leader must develop his emotional capacity also known as Emotional Intelligence, to handle these hazards.

A good leader should learn to filter some of these criticisms and use them as tools for personal improvement and personal growth. 

The Bible, in Ecclesiastes 7:5 KJV, offers this wisdom: 

"It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise than to listen to the song of fools."

A true leader must embrace feedback as an opportunity to learn and become a better servant of the people.

No Community, Society or even a Nation that can guarantee any of her leaders, that their tenure will be free from criticism, name calling and such other Leadership Occupational Hazards. 

Any leader who truly desire to advance his people must develop a "Thick Skin" against these hazards.
