DESTINY AND THE GOD FACTOR
AYELESO TOYOSI
“Yea, though I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil,
For you are with me;
Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”
The human destiny is metaphorical to soap bubbles. While some never rise at all, some rise as though they don’t cause, they fall to the ground as soon as they rise and bust. In the same vein, there are some that rise and continue to move higher and higher till they disappear into heights. It is important to note that all the soap bubbles with their varying experiences are borne out of the same soap solution.
Now comparing it to human life, just as soap-bubbles are borne out of the same solution everyone born into this world is born with what I call the inbuilt ability to succeed”. This is a force that follows every human being that is born on the surface of the earth right from the period of labour. This therefore implies that everyone born into this world is supposed to be a success. Then, this could arouse this important question; “If everyone is born a success, then why is everyone not successful?
Interestingly, the answer is not far fetched and this is where the God factor comes in. The beautiful destiny of everyone that comes carrying success is born into this world, which is the valley of the shadow of death. This “valley of the shadow of death” which we call life is full of cosmic waves, which therefore tend to attack individual destiny depicted as the “soap bubbles”. Fortunately even in this valley full of cosmic waves that tend to blow up the soap bubbles so that they fall, how beautiful is it to note that some still end up rising higher and the sky happens to be their limit.
As in the extract above the only factor that can save the human destiny from the cosmic waves present while we walk through the valley of the shadow of death is the “YOU” as depicted in the extract above, which incidentally is the “GOD” factor. This is a pre-requisite to the success of any individual because He alone can control the cosmic waves with his rod and staff.
Finally, let me end on this note that everyone could be a success with the God factor being in mind, and when one brings in to walk with him, then not just success will come into the picture but good success.
