There is this Biblical illustration; ‘a labourer no matter how hard driven he may be during the day time knows that the night is coming, a time he will have a sleep that exempts worries’. In short, I think that the bible passage even points out that ‘a laborer's sleep is sweet’. Its context may have other sound interpretations but I also see it feeding in reliable facts to boost my points on this article.
My recent article is just a good follow up from here. It seems I was already perceiving how today will end; splendid, superb and ok, let me hold it there. I didn't win a lotto for your info but when the pressure gets shifted off your shoulders, it gives you room to think of other things.
There is a saying, ‘what will be will be’. I will also like to add, you can also determine what will be. A clear and positive mind can achieve a lot. When it seems there is no road, in short, with your very eyes you’ve seen none yet you keep professing the diverse roads that are opened already, you can even be a big confusion to the situation.

If you have eyes that only conclude of things seen, yes you may have eyes but you lack sight. Trust me, the latter is of utmost importance. I had to sit back today and reflect on how I have been able to scale through a situation with today marking its last round.
‘Everything that has a beginning has an end except God’. There is a lot of leverage from this statement; first, one can look at the pending advantages of putting ALL hopes on God since he is not limited by neither beginning nor end. Maybe I should introduce this example, have you been on a travel experience as a newbie? You get so very worried, I hope I get there safely, I hope I don't get looted along the way.
This happened to me on my first time trying to reach out to one of our biggest national markets. I was about to travel to a nearby state and the rumors of how rough that environment is was something that kept my adrenaline pumping. It seems the entire environment was a ‘shine your eyes’. I had to find some safety precautions and one of those was to walk with someone who has gone there over and over again.

The big difference between us was there, you could imagine his calmness as if nothing was really happening when we got there and even while returning. He told me the numerous years he has travelled this path while mine was just the first time.
How did I get to this article? Ok, it was an urgent education exercise that took me very unaware. A had some online courses and examinations to cater for in a very short period of time. Look in-between and you will understand why I am feeling relieved. There is a business to manage and this ember season comes with such demanding pressure of work load. I will have to shuffle smartly; time to go through some course materials daily so I can be able to cover up the syllables of different registered courses.
Or maybe I should delve a little into my faith. Do well to make sure God doesn't become a secondary thing in your life. I had to be involved in our annual convention exercise and when you are part of a reliable team, you have to be a source of energy to another. Even after the one week exercise, this doesn't mean au revoir to God; there is much more beyond earthly achievements.
In summary, I have also strengthened both my faith and experience in the process. To be more precise with you, I never really had that time for study. It can be difficult to go through a pile of course materials while your brain is thinking about business on the go. Having to take my final course exams today and nailing a good grade reminded me of ‘beginning of things and its inevitable end’. Trouble may endure just for the night but joy comes in the morning, there are some scriptural backings one shouldn't take lightly.
