DON'T WASTE YOUR EXISTENCE
Earlier today I was chatting to a colleague of mine at work.
After telling her I'm about to publish my second book this year, she asked, "WOW! Where did you get the time?"
Before I responded, she said, "I write poetry too and I enjoy writing them".
I was quick to ask, "do you publish them anywhere?" and she said, "No, I don't think they are good enough to be published".
The conversation went on about why she thought they were not good enough, and then I realised, she was being held back by what people think.
Why am I sharing this with you?
See, until you are delivered from the 'what would people think' syndrome, you will never fulfill God's purpose for your life.
That colleague of mine, I told her, "I wish you knew how many destinies are connected to you sharing your poetry with the world". If only she had any idea.
It's selfishness to hold back from sharing your message, your story, your pains, your gifts with the world. In fact, the Bible calls it wickedness.
Enough is enough letting what people would think to hold you back!
If you have to get a coach to break free from that limitation, do so!
If you have to get a mentor to help you break free, ask God for one.
You cannot afford to go to the grave and allow your story to be buried with you unheard.
You cannot afford to die unfulfilled.
You cannot afford to die selfish with your song inside you.
Don't waste your existence!
There are people waiting to find hope from your story, from your message, don't deny them.
Generations are calling! The world needs you!
Allow me to scream these words into your ears:
Your story is good enough.
Your poetry is good to go!
Your song can make the studio!
Your book can still be written.
Don't let what people would say or think hold you back.
Be delivered today in Jesus' name. Somebody who has just been delivered, say AMEN?!
I believe in you.

Picture an eagle in a cage. No matter how beautiful the cage is, the eagle was not designed to live in a cage. It was designed to soar on the highest heights and mountains with courage and flair. No matter the lure of the cage, it can never surpass the freedom of the eagle soaring in all expanse of the skies in all of its glories and strength. Like the eagle trapped, too many brilliant, gifted, called individuals are trapped in the cage of careers they were not designed for. They can never command their true worth and value, they can only eat the crumbs they are being fed by their captors. The lure of salaries and pennies that will never satisfy keeps them in such cages. They would rather remain in the rat race than take the risks for their freedom and glory. The Bible says, "If the Son (Jesus) sets you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36 As a child of God, you can break free! You were not designed to be caged! Any job that does not give you the freedom to express your gifts, talents and calling is a cage. One of the biggest graveyards of purpose I see is this graveyard of unfulfilling careers. People get jobs only for the sake of earning, rather than fulfilling their life's calling and pursuing what matters to them. But here's the truth: The careers you were not designed for will not satisfy you. They will leave you with voids and emptiness. At the end of your career, you would lack true legacy, influence and impact. Your time to break free is now. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo
