These Are The Days of The Broadways.


It is said that destiny is not to be waited for, but rather to be achieved. I agree. Still, it is not enough reason for us to run upon any road that beckons with the promise of a better experience than we already have.

It's not okay too that many people go through life waiting for life's purpose and niche to come knocking and announcing at their doors.  They never do in many cases. Nonetheless, most people pine away waiting as life passes them bye.

A lot more people get into a flurry of activities in the name of vogue and trend without weighing how they will in the end impact their overall lives. As long as others are doing it. it goes for them. It is more so if that act has a potential to rake in money! Even where it is given that the activity in itself is not bad, some engaging in them are ill-prepared so they under-deliver and hurt the recipients.


" Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is easy, that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many."(Matt 7:13)

God has always shown His ability and faithfulness  to give satisfying and fulfilling success using what the bandwagon opinion has underrated or written-off. All that is needed is that you do something. And in all you're doing make sure they are acceptable to God to whom we must go accountable. And even at that, always give your best effort in all things you do.

People who have a habit of walking with God have proven that as they work out God's righteousness in the things they do all the things for which the unscrupulous compromise in this world are effortlessly added unto them as an aside.

" Enter by the narrow gate;..... For the gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few." (Matt 7:14)

These are the days of the broadways. People are loving easy life more than decency and integrity, more than honor. But in the long run they give back all that they seem to have enjoyed. Very few people seem to dare to take the road less travelled any more. But that road usually is where destiny is accomplished.

Take that narrow way today, for therein lie salvation and ultimate fulfilment. Those destined to be great are already walking there!

What Will You Give Me If I Deliver Him To You?



What will you give me if I get rid of the incriminating evidence for you? What will you give me if I got rid of your opponent for you? The possibilities are limitless. What will you give me if I soiled my hands for you while you maintain your facade with the people?
"They gave him 30 pieces of silver. And from that moment he sought an opportunity to betray him".
Have you too compromised yourself that you are now bound to seek out an opportunity to sell out your confidant, betray a trust?
Judas Iscariot discovered too late that what he expected wasn't going to happen and he hated ever taking those 30 pieces of silver. In fact, he hung himself for it because he could no longer live with himself.
Can you live with yourself after what you are about to do?
Do you really believe things will go as you planned? And even if it does, is it worth this betrayal you are doing?
Judas got eternally hurt from his betrayal of Jesus. As for Jesus, his hurt was already written and was for a greater good. But you, why does it have to be by you this temptation must come?
It's not too late to have a change of mind. But, it's really up to you. Like Judas, if you must, go on and do it!
